Subminimal Subscale Digital Coffee Dosing Cup
Weigh your dose in the cup you pour it from.
The Subminimal Subscale is a coffee dosing cup with a scale built into it. Touch the cup and a hidden LED display lights up through the matte black body, reading your beans to 0.1 g. No separate scale, no extra container, one less step every morning.
Weigh your beans, tip them straight into the grinder, then grind back into the same cup if your grinder allows it. It holds around 60 g of beans, enough for single and double espresso doses or a full pour over.
It won the SCA Best New Product Award 2025 in the Coffee Accessories category at World of Coffee Geneva.

Overview
Overview
Built for the morning routine.
Most setups mean a scale, a dosing cup, and a bit of juggling between the two. The Subscale folds both into one. Drop your beans in, read the weight through the side, and pour straight into the grinder without moving anything to a second container.
The display stays hidden until you touch it, so on the counter it just looks like a matte black cup. It's sized for espresso doses and pour over alike, and it charges by USB-C like your phone.
How to use
How to use
- Wake it up: touch the cup to light up the display and zero it.
- Dose: add beans until you hit your target weight.
- Load the grinder: pour the beans straight into your grinder.
- Grind back in: if your grinder allows, grind into the cup to check your output weight.
💡 Tip: Weigh your coffee before and after grinding. The difference shows how much your grinder is holding back.
