Does this scale offer fluid ounces? Does this scale offer fluid ounces?

No scale will measure fluid ounces, unless you already know your material's density and hence the weight you need. Fluid ounces are a volume measurement, not weight.

In some products fluid ounces may correspond closely to weight ounces but no scale can measure volume. You have just been lucky that the weight measure has been close enough to the volume that your previous recipes have worked.

Thanks for your thoughtful reply, however I already own a set of scales (have had for years) which measure in fluid ounces and was seeking to replace it as the buttons have become worn. It is the Salter 3003 Aquatronic Glass Electronic Kitchen Scale. I decided in the end to replace like with like. I understand what you are saying about weight / volume, but this scale seems to be able to do it at least good enough for cooking purposes, though I couldn't vouch for their accuracy. Thanks again though.

Unfortunately no. It gives three options: ounces, grams, or pounds and ounces. It does resolve the ounces to 1/100's of an ounce when in the ounce mode, and 1/10th of an ounce in the pound/ounce mode. It is extremely sensitive and repeatability is almost always perfect. I have compared it to known weights and found it to be extremely accurate.

No scale measures volume. You can press the left button again and it will show pounds and ounces as weight. I hope this helps.

no, it is less than 8 ounces. I don't have it right in front of me, so I can't tell exactly how many fluid ounces, but I remember I ordered the smaller size out of the two possible sizes, and 8 ounces was the bigger size.

Hi John I just checked mine and it is 6.8 fluid oz's,or 200 mls. It's a top deal.I checked it out here in Australia and was rapt to purchase it. Cheers. Ken.

No... While fluid-ounce is a measure of volume, there are some other digital scales which can display equivalent volume by weight for water & other known selections of specific ingredients. However this scale cannot do this and will only display weight measurements.

The scale will do all the conversions for you into fluid ounces, ounces, and milligrams. One of the buttons if touched once will change The measurement type. If pressed again it will change it to the next measurement type, cycling through the four measurements that it can do.

Hi, I had shipped the scale back the same day it arrived 'cause the digital display was not working properly (the lines were incomplete and so I couldn't make out the numbers). I don't recall if it had both grams and ounces. I purchased a Kamenstein brand, model #5105597, which is very sturdy and can weigh up to 11 lbs / 5Kg and love it.

Yes it does. Using my scale, I poured water into the bowl up to the lip. 750 grams. Converting to imperial that's 26.45 ounces.

No, this one is more of a kitchen type scale but for small measurements, including troy ounces, have a look at this one - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Smart-Weigh-Digital-Back-lit-Capacity/dp/B00IZ1YHZK/ref=cm_cr-mr-title

NoThe scale does not do fractions of grams. Only full numbers. Ditto for ounces.

Yes you toggle between metric and English. It displays lbs and decimal for ounces

Fluid ounces are a measure of volume, where ounces are weight. You need a measuring cup for volumes.

Yes, this scale does show the ounces. It is accurate, however since we use it in our Shipping/Receiving department primarily for UPS and FX shipments and not US Mail packages, I would not be able to respond to your second question.

You say 8.8 ounces? no sir.....I'm afraid it doesn't.....It's more like a pound or half of it.....Where did you see this?
1855178
No it doesn't. It will display lbs in decimals so you can roughly work it out from that if needed. Wouldn't recommend if you needed precision at the level of ounces.
