Varia AKU Scale

With a slim profile of just 0.55 inches, the AKU Mini is specifically designed to fit under most standard espresso machines, including those with limited clearance between the drip tray and portafilter.

The AKU SPRO mode is a dedicated espresso setting that automatically calculates your brew ratio in real-time. It simplifies the workflow by tracking your extraction flow rate and timing alongside your weight measurements.

The scale features an IPX6 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected against powerful water jets. While you shouldn't submerge it, it is more than capable of handling accidental spills or splashes during your morning espresso routine.

No, the Varia AKU Mini uses a built-in 480mAh lithium polymer battery that is easily recharged via USB. A full charge provides approximately 10 hours of active brewing time.

Yes, the scale includes Bluetooth connectivity, allowing you to sync data with compatible devices. This helps you track your extraction metrics more precisely over time.

While 0.1g is often sufficient for standard brewing, 0.01g precision allows for much tighter control over your dose and yield. This level of accuracy is particularly helpful when dialing in light-roast coffees where small variations significantly impact flavor.
