Unlock Better Extraction with the MANTABREW Coffee Scale’s Real-Time Precision

Introduction: The Art and Science of Coffee Extraction

Ask any serious barista or coffee enthusiast, and they’ll tell you—great coffee is all about precision. From bean-to-water ratio to extraction time, every variable in the brewing process plays a critical role in what ends up in your cup.

But without the right tools, these variables are nearly impossible to control consistently.

That’s why the MANTABREW Coffee Scale has become a favorite among professionals and hobbyists alike. By offering real-time feedback on weight and pulse weight, it allows you to fine-tune every step of your brew with accuracy that was previously only available in lab-grade tools.

What Is Extraction, and Why Does Precision Matter?

Extraction refers to the process of dissolving coffee solubles into water. You want to extract the desirable flavors—sweetness, acidity, and complexity—while avoiding under- or over-extraction, which results in sour or bitter cups.

  • Under-extraction = sour, weak, sharp acidity

  • Over-extraction = bitter, astringent, hollow flavor

  • Ideal extraction = balanced, clean, sweet, and nuanced

Hitting that sweet spot depends on precise control over variables like:

  • Brew time

  • Water flow rate

  • Coffee-to-water ratio

  • Grind size

  • Bloom time

  • Pour intervals

The MANTABREW Coffee Scale gives you live, accurate data on all of this.

What Makes the MANTABREW Coffee Scale Different?

Unlike generic digital kitchen scales or basic barista tools, the MANTABREW Coffee Scale is purpose-built for precision coffee extraction, offering:

✅ Dual Readout: Weight + Pulse Weight

Most scales show static total weight. MANTABREW introduces pulse weight, a real-time readout that measures incremental water added during each pour—critical for pour-over and manual brews.

✅ Integrated Timer

Start, stop, and monitor brew time on the same screen, perfectly synced with your weight data.

✅ Fast-Reacting Sensors

Lag kills precision. MANTABREW’s sensors react instantly, giving you real-time feedback with 0.1g accuracy, so you never over-pour again.

✅ Modular & Detachable Design

The world’s first modular coffee scale, Weighmaster lets you move and rotate displays, separate weight sensors, and adapt your setup whether you’re in a café, kitchen, or mountaintop.

✅ Brew Profile Logging

Use the display or connected devices (integration coming soon) to track pour profiles over time—perfect for baristas and teams needing reproducibility.

Real-World Benefits: How It Improves Your Brew

Let’s break down the real benefits you’ll notice when brewing with the MANTABREW Coffee Scale:

1. Better Pour Control

You'll immediately notice a smoother, more even extraction once you can monitor how much water you're adding per pour.
No more guessing—see your bloom pour, mid-pour, and final fill precisely.

2. Repeatability

Ever brewed the perfect cup and couldn’t recreate it the next day? That ends here. Your brew data becomes your repeatable formula.

3. Dialing in Faster

Whether you're adjusting grind size or pour intervals, you can see the impact of every change and hone in on the ideal parameters faster.

4. Consistency in a Team Environment

If you run a café, giving baristas a consistent tool with live feedback ensures drinks taste the same across shifts and staff.

Brewing Outdoors? No Problem.

Precision shouldn't be confined to countertops. The portable and battery-efficient design of Weighmaster means you can take it camping, to events, or anywhere your coffee goes.

Combined with your hand grinder and kettle, you’ve now got a mobile coffee lab.

Bonus Use Case: Espresso Tuning

If you make espresso, you know how sensitive grams and seconds are. Weighmaster fits under most group heads and lets you:

  • Monitor shot weight in real time

  • Time extractions precisely

  • Capture post-brew pulse (flow) data for analysis

It’s a calibration tool just as much as a brewing tool.
