Will powdery stuff like flour get stuck in the edges of the weight display screen?

To avoid that, I would place a bowl on the scale, zero it out, and then add the amount of flour you need. That being said, the face is completely flat, so there are no crevices for it to get stuck in.

no, the top of the scale is flat. but the best way to weigh flour would be to put into a bowl and tare the bowl first. that means you can zero out the bowl's weight and then add the flour to the bowl and have the accurate measurement. the scale will tare any container for you nicely. this is a wonderfuls scale.

Yes, just make sure the surface is dry, dirt free and if there's any rust use a wire brush to remove the scale.

The weighing surface does not appear to be removable. The cleaning instructions do not indicate removal either

I use mine for sugar for which it holds 5 lbs pretty comfortably. As for flour, I am not certain I'm afraid.

I would imagine that this would get rather messy with flour. The hopper funnels the rice into a small measuring compartment, and when you press the button, that drops the rice into the drawer. Dropping the flour into the drawer would kick up a cloud inside the dispenser, which will get flour into parts where it shouldn't go. Even with rice, there are always at least a few grains that miss the drawer and end up in the bottom of the dispenser that need to be cleaned out occasionally.

These are lightweight containers. If you put 5 pounds of flour in it, it won't weigh much over five pounds.

The screen snaps on to the holders and not slide on. I have a recessed space for my screen as well. You should have no problems.

Hi!! No it doesn't have a lock position, just keep it upright, when you add water take a look, it will stay up, then when you add flour, the "mix" will help it to keep it up, and you are done!!! Happy baking!!!

Easy way to answer this is to get a micro fibre cloth with a flat object behind it such as a book or wooden block. Try to push the debris with this whilst pressing down lightly, that will simulate what the Mint plus will do, I'd expect the heavier stuff will be pushed into the corner whilst the lighter stuff ends up in the cloth. I have a portable vacuum that I run around the edges very occasionally because of this.

no. though you can place a larger object on it and press the Hold button, remove the item and see the weight.

Sea salt crystals were retained by the mesh screen for me. If the almond flour is of finer consistency it should process OK.

Absolutely you can, the platform (without covering the LED screen) has a size of 7.2" by 6" , it is good enough to be placed a container on it. After your put a container such as a dinner plate on the platform, you may touch the TARE key (the right hand side key) to reset the weight to 0, then you are ready to weight anything in the container. The result display will be the actual weight of the things in the container.

This scale like any other that uses a load-cell array needs to be used on a hard, flat surface in order to achieve an accurate reading. I wish I had a permanent home for mine but there is no room for it. I store mine leaning against the side of the vanity cabinet, then bring it into the bathroom (5' away) and use it there.

I don't think so. The flour comes out swiftly and all your kitchen will finish with tons of powder!

The screen has a very low strength magnet similar to a flexible fridge magnets. The screen is intended for the exterior of the computer case and would have no effect on internal components.

I use a very fine grind, and have more trouble not getting the sludge in my cup. But, soaking it with some baking soda should clear the screen.

The mesh screen has a button you turn to remove to clean. For the inside just wipe with damp cloth and dry. If you do a lot of sifting for baking this is a great little gadget works in a matter of seconds. I wouldn't be without it.
