We are proud to announce a new addition to the PAL series, PAL-COFFEE.

With the high resolution of 0.01%, the subtle difference in the concentration of coffee and espresso can be measured. Stable readings are possible even with high-temperature, fresh brew due to the continuous measurement feature. Watch the unit take multiple measurements, and read once the measurements stabilize. 

PAL-COFFEE(TDS scale), which famous Baristas are using for their important tools, has the high resolution of 0.01%.The subtle difference in the concentration of coffee and espresso can be measured.Stable readings are possible even with high-temperature, fresh brew due to the continuous measurement feature.
