In modern kitchen, mechanical kitchen scale, as a key tool, plays a vital role, especially in accurate weighing ingredients. For professional chefs and family cooking enthusiasts, ensuring the accuracy of weighing is the basis of successful cooking. However, environmental factors such as temperature and humidity may have a significant impact on the performance and weight results of the mechanical kitchen scale. Therefore, in -depth understanding of these influencing factors and taking effective measures will help improve the accuracy and reliability of weight.

The effect of temperature symmetry
Changes can cause thermal expansion and contraction of the material, which will affect the accuracy of the mechanical kitchen scale. The physical characteristics of the scale material such as metal and plastics will change at different temperatures, which may cause the pointer or scale disk position of the scale to offset. In addition, the physical properties of ingredients will also be affected by temperature. For example, the weight of butter in the mesenchymal room mildly refrigerated. The density of the liquid will also change with temperature changes, which may directly affect the accuracy of the weighing results.

The effect of humidity symmetry
The changes in humidity will also affect the result of symmetry. In a high humidity environment, dry powder, such as flour and sugar, may absorb water in the air, leading to an increase in actual weight, which affects the accuracy of baking and cooking. In addition, high humidity may cause the metal component of the scale to rust or corrode, which will affect the performance and service life of the scale.

Strategy to deal with temperature and humidity
In order to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the mechanical kitchen scale, the following strategies are recommended:
Choose a suitable environment
It is crucial to maintain the constant temperature and humidity in the kitchen. The ideal environmental temperature should be kept between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius, and the humidity should be controlled between 40%and 60%. You can maintain a stable temperature by air conditioner or heater, and use the dehumidifier to adjust the humidity. In addition, the mechanical kitchen scale is placed in a cool and dry place to avoid direct sunlight and the direct impact of humid air, which is also very important.
Use moisture -proof equipment
In a high humidity environment, the use of dehumidifiers can effectively reduce the water in the air, thereby keeping the dryness of the kitchen. At the same time, placing desiccants (such as silicone bags) in the storage machine kitchen scale can absorb excess water and prevent the components of the scale from moisture.
Regular calibration and maintenance
In order to ensure the accurate reading of the mechanical kitchen scale, it is recommended to check whether the zero point of the scale before each use is normal and calibrate when necessary. In addition, keep the scale clean and dry, check whether the components of the scale are worn or damaged, and use a clean wet cloth to gently wipe the scale to avoid using corrosive cleaners.
Record environmental changes
When using a mechanical kitchen scale, it is recommended to record the temperature and humidity of the environment, especially when baking and fine cooking. This will help chefs understand the changes in ingredients under specific environmental conditions, so as to make corresponding adjustments in the formula.
Choose the right way of weighing
When weighing ingredients, choose a light and flat container to reduce the impact on scale and avoid heavy or unstable containers. At the same time, you should gently put in the ingredients to avoid quickly pouring or throwing in to reduce the impact on the scale and ensure stable reading.
