Portion Control
The Importance of Portion Control
It is important that scales remain accurate to ensure profitability.
Edlund scales are manufactured to operate in harsh commercial foodservice environments. High heat, humidity, steam and airborne grease can quickly ruin a scale's accuracy.
All Edlund scales are designed to be re-calibratable in your kitchen to avoid wasted time and money returning scales to factory for re-calibration.
If your scales aren't accurate you are losing money!
For example, if your protein (veal, cheese, pork, beef, ham, fish etc) costs £22 per kg and your scale is out of calibration by 21g, you lose 46p per portion served:
| Product | Cheddar Cheese (grated) | Prosciutto Di Parma (pre-sliced) | Protein (veal/fish etc) | Sirloin Steak (28 day dry aged) |
| Purchase cost | £17.88 per kg (1.8p/gram) | £7.22 per 100 gram (7.2p/gram) | £22 per kg (2.2p/gram) | £62 per kg (6.2p/gram) |
| Calibration out by | 5g | 5g | 21g | 21g |
| Loss per serving | 9p | 36p | 46.2p | £1.30 |
| 30 portions per day | £2.70 | £10.80 | £13.86 | £39.06 |
| 6 days a week | £16.20 | £64.80 | £83.16 | £234.36 |
| 52 weeks | £842.40 | £3,369.60 | £4,324.32 | £12,186.72 |
| A 3 year loss | £2,527.20 | £10,108.80 | £12,972.96 | £36,560.16 |
