Gourmetmiles Macroscale Digitizes Natural
The Macroscale is a product of GOURMETMILES Incorporated Austin Texas, 78701, USA All rights reserved.
Introduction
Thank you for your Macroscale purchase. The Macroscale sends accurate (to 100 milligrams) weight data to your smartphone wirelessly via Bluetooth. Eliminating the need to manually enter food weights into your diet record. When used with the Gourmetmiles app, the Macroscale logs nutrition data by weight for over 75,000 foods directly to your diet record. This is done by placing a plate/bowl/etc. onto the Macroscale, then zeroing/taring out the weight of the plate/bowl. Once the plate/bowl is tared, identify any ingredient within the integrated USDA Food Data Central database, and add to the plate/bowl. Continue to add ingredients until your meal build is complete. This can be done to build sandwiches, salads, and other recipes with multiple ingredients. All without manually logging or weighing each ingredient individually. The Macroscale makes diet tracking easy.
