What is the Scales tool?

Those handy Basic Cookbook measurements are now pre-set on your Thermomix®. Scales mode gives you precise, built-in weighing for every ingredient—accurate down to the gram (and ounces)—so portions are perfect, recipes stay balanced, and prep gets faster.

How does it work?

The Scales tool is available in Manual Cooking mode, making precision effortless. Just place ingredients on the Thermomix® mixing bowl lid and follow these simple steps:

  1. Choose your ingredient from the pre-defined list

  2. Select the quantity or portion size you need

  3. Add ingredients while watching the real-time weight on the display

  4. Continue until you hit the exact measurement — no guesswork, no extra tools required

With accuracy down to the gram (and ounces), you can portion perfectly, reduce waste, and cook with total confidence — whether you’re following Guided Cooking or creating your own spin on a recipe.

Ideal for:

  • Creative cooks who care about precision and perfect results
    • Busy home cooks who want to save time by weighing ingredients directly into the bowl
    • Smart budgeters who avoid waste by measuring exact portions for meal prep.
