Rhino Coffee Gear Dosing Scale – 1kg

The Rhino Coffee Gear Dosing Scale is a compact, bench-friendly espresso dosing scale designed to sit between your grinder and portafilter — giving you accurate, repeatable dose weights in a minimal footprint that won't clutter your station.

Compact Platform & Detachable Tray

The 69mm x 69mm stainless steel platform keeps the scale's overall footprint tight enough to slot into any barista station or home setup. The detachable lid doubles as a dosing tray — useful for catching ground coffee from the grinder before transferring to the portafilter, or for weighing whole beans before grinding. It also lifts off for quick, easy cleaning. The sloped display angles the readout towards the user so you can check the weight at a glance without leaning over the scale.

Accuracy & Measurement Modes

At 0.1g precision across a 1,000g (35oz) capacity, the Dosing Scale gives you everything needed for consistent espresso dosing. Measurement modes include grams, ounces, grains, and pennyweight — covering everyday coffee use and beyond. Tare and calibration functions are on hand to keep readings accurate, and auto-off protects battery life between uses.

Build & Power

The platform is stainless steel for durability and easy wiping. The scale runs on 2 x AAA batteries, included in the box. It is the most compact and affordable scale in the Rhino range — purpose-built for dosing rather than brewing, and pairs naturally with the Rhino Dosing Cup for a clean, consistent workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Rhino Coffee Gear Dosing Scale designed for? The Rhino Dosing Scale is designed primarily for espresso dosing — specifically the workflow of weighing ground coffee from the grinder before it goes into the portafilter. Its 69mm x 69mm platform and detachable tray make it easy to catch and weigh doses neatly. At 1,000g capacity and 0.1g accuracy, it covers all standard single and double espresso doses with precision. It can also be used to weigh whole beans before grinding.

What is the detachable tray for on the Rhino Dosing Scale? The detachable lid doubles as a shallow dosing tray that sits on top of the platform. You can grind directly into it to catch the dose, weigh it, and then transfer to the portafilter — keeping the workflow clean and the platform protected. It lifts off easily for wiping down between uses and snaps back on to protect the platform when the scale is stored.

How does the Rhino Dosing Scale compare to the Rhino Bench Scale 2kg? The Dosing Scale is the smaller, lighter option — its 69mm x 69mm platform and 1kg capacity are sized specifically for weighing espresso doses at the grinder. The Rhino Bench Scale 2kg has a much larger 150mm x 158mm stainless steel platform designed to hold a full portafilter basket for in-basket dose weighing, with a higher 2kg capacity. If you dose directly into the portafilter on the scale, the Bench Scale is the better choice. If you prefer to catch and transfer your dose, the Dosing Scale is neater and more compact.

Is the Rhino Dosing Scale suitable for pour-over brewing? It can be used for small pour-over doses and bean weighing, but its 69mm x 69mm platform is too small to support most pour-over brewers and servers. For pour-over use, the Rhino Coffee Gear Brewing Scale 3kg — with its 126mm x 126mm platform and built-in timer — is the more appropriate choice. The Dosing Scale is at its best as a dedicated bench-side dosing tool alongside an espresso machine.

What batteries does the Rhino Dosing Scale use? The scale runs on 2 x AAA batteries, which are included in the box. The auto-off function helps extend battery life by switching the scale off after a period of inactivity.
