Rec's for Timer with non-annoying Beep, & a good Tea Sca

by joelbct » Dec 30th, '07, 11:00

Does anyone have recommendations for a tea timer with a pleasant, non-intrusive alarm? Also, for a good tea scale? Links would be handy

I use a widget timer on my mac, called Meditation Timer. When the time comes, it sounds off with one ding of a realistic bell, church bell style, very gentle on the ears and vibe.

The Myweigh scales are good ones. Right on Scales sells them. The 400z is a cheap, popular one.

A few of us have this one:

I've been very happy with it.

Ah, this looks cool, I wish they made a standalone unit, for times when my computer is off, or when I am in another room, which believe it or not, does happen :)
