KitchenAid digital kitchen scale 11 lb (Black) – tempered glass platform, rotating unit knob, tare function

The KitchenAid KQ908 is an 11-pound tempered glass digital kitchen scale with a rotating unit knob, tare function, and easy-to-read backlit display for precise dry and liquid measurements.

Designed to combine kitchen-style with practical accuracy, this compact black KitchenAid scale pairs a tempered glass platform and stainless-steel trim with an oversized rotary knob for choosing units and engaging tare or power. It measures both dry and liquid ingredients in ounces, grams, milliliters and fluid ounces, and its spotless glass surface resists stains and odors. The scale runs on three AAA batteries (included) and offers an auto-off feature to preserve power.

How accurate is the scale for baking and cooking?

The KQ908 supports fine measurements suitable for most home recipes, offering 0.1-ounce and 1-gram resolution depending on mode. The rotating knob lets you switch units quickly so you can measure by weight or by volume for liquids without mental conversions.

• Dry accuracy: up to 11 lb with 0.1 oz resolution and 1 g steps
• Liquid accuracy: up to 176 fl oz with 0.1 fl oz steps and 5000 ml with 1 ml steps
• Large 1.0" backlit LCD for clear numbers under varied lighting

How does the tare feature simplify multi-ingredient recipes?

The tare function zeroes the display so you can add successive ingredients into the same bowl and track only the new weight. Use the oversized knob to tare between additions or to reset after placing a container on the platform.

• Push the knob to Tare or power on/off
• Weigh multiple ingredients in one bowl without manual subtractions
• Zero out container weight before adding ingredients

Is the scale easy to clean and maintain?

The glass top is nonporous and resists stains and odors, making surface cleanup quick with a damp cloth. The scale is not dishwasher-safe or submersible, so avoid immersing it in water and dry thoroughly after wiping.

• Tempered glass platform for durable, stain-resistant surface
• Wipe with a damp cloth; do not immerse or use a dishwasher
• Stainless-steel accent trim adds a simple, durable edge finish

What power and convenience features should I expect?

The unit runs on three AAA batteries that are included, and it automatically shuts off after about three minutes of no weight change to conserve battery life. The oversized rotating knob is inspired by KitchenAid countertop ovens, making unit changes and tare operations intuitive.

• Operates on three AAA batteries (included)
• Auto shut-off after ~3 minutes of inactivity
• Twist knob to select units; push to tare or power on/off

Who is this for? Home cooks, bakers and anyone who needs reliable, compact weighing for recipes or portioning will find this KitchenAid scale useful. It suits kitchens where style matters as much as function—those who want a stain-resistant glass top, clear display, and straightforward controls without a large footprint. Ideal for people who prepare multi-ingredient dishes, measure liquids and dry goods, or who prefer a tactile knob to digital buttons.
