June: If you can get 0.1% precision from the digital scale, you will be
way ahead of the precision of the triple beam, which in the kg range can
be out +/- 3%. And since most recipes specify materials that vary in
composition by perhaps +/- 5%, you should find little change in their
behaviour when you switch to the fast-acting digital scale. Good tests.

June -
If you can get that kind of accuracy with digital, you must be looking at a
very expensive scale, aren't you? I have a little pile of wonderful glaze
tests that I did early on in my potting career(?), which were weighed out
on a digital scale. They have since proved unrepeatable, as the margin of
error was so great that I haven't been able to find my way back to the
particular variation of that moment.
If the digital you are looking at has a guaranteed level of accuracy of
0.1% I'll be very interested.
