Do you weigh out a portion of coffee beans per cup? With this ceramic dosing bowl, you keep them together and pour them into your grinder through the spout.
You place a bowl on the scale and try to measure out the right amount of beans. But with a small opening, adding or removing a single bean is difficult. Then the entire portion still has to go into your grinder.
Beans rolling off the scale
Loose coffee beans don't stay put on their own. As soon as you want to adjust a serving, they easily roll out of the bowl.
Too little space to shake
If you want to lightly moisten the beans before grinding, a narrow cup is inconvenient for gently mixing them together.
Pouring over is a difficult moment
When transferring to a narrow bean chute, some beans sometimes fall outside the grinder. Especially when the edge of your container does not have a spout.
A permanent place for your serving of beans
The black ceramic Coffee Dosing Tray from Barista Essentials is designed for single dosing: you weigh out only the beans you need for the next cup. The wide opening and raised edge help with filling and mixing. You then pour the portion into your grinder using the spout.
The tray does not weigh the coffee itself. For accurate weighing, use a separate coffee scale.
Who does this scale work for?
For home baristas who weigh out beans per cup and then pour them into their coffee grinder. Not intended as a catch cup for ground coffee under the spout.
What exactly do you get?
You will receive one black ceramic dosing bowl with raised edges and a pouring spout. The bowl measures approximately 10.5 Γ 7.5 cm, weighs about 95 grams, and according to the manufacturer, holds approximately 25 grams of coffee beans. It is dishwasher-safe. A scale, coffee grinder, and any spray are not included.
Calmness when weighing and pouring over
Use the dosing scoop with a coffee scale and press tare before adding beans. The wide opening makes it easy to remove a few beans if you go over the desired weight.
Do you grind per cup and struggle with static coffee residue? Then you can use an RDT spray if needed. The raised rim gives you space to briefly shake the beans. This is an extra step, not a required part of making coffee.
The bowl helps with pouring; the scale determines the weight.
Place the empty ceramic bowl on your coffee scale and press tare. Then add the amount of whole coffee beans you want to grind.
Give them a shake if necessary
Want to reduce static coffee residue? Then optionally use a very light mist of RDT spray and gently shake the beans around in the tray.
Pour slowly into your grinder

Frequently Asked Questions about the Coffee Dosing Tray
Can the dosing scoop weigh coffee beans itself?
No. The scale does not have a built-in weighing function. Place it on a separate coffee scale, press tare, and then add the beans. This way you weigh the contents without the weight of the scale.
How many coffee beans fit in the bowl?
The manufacturer states a capacity of approximately 25 grams of whole coffee beans. How much you need depends on your brewing method and recipe. For larger servings, the scoop may be too small.
Do I need an RDT spray to use the scale?
We're here to help you get the most out of your water sports adventures. Below, you'll find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.
Can the ceramic Coffee Dosing Tray go in the dishwasher?
Yes. Barista Essentials states that this ceramic dosing bowl is dishwasher-safe. You can also rinse it by hand and let it dry thoroughly before weighing out new beans.
Is this the same as a measuring cup for ground coffee?
No. This tray is mainly used before grinding to weigh out whole beans and pour them into the grinder. A dosing cup usually catches ground coffee underneath the grinder. Also see the official Coffee Dosing Tray product information.
