📝 Product Introduction
A Classic, Evolved: Lighter, Slimmer, More Professional
TIMEMORE's classic Black Mirror series gets a major third-generation update! The Basic 3 keeps the classic design language while being improved across the board based on Basic 2 user feedback. Not only is it 34.6% smaller and down to just 300 g, it also adds the long-requested “espresso mode” and “brew ratio calculation”, making it the ideal partner as you move from pour-over at home to professional espresso.
✨ Five Key Upgrades
-
New Espresso/Pour-Over Dual Modes: Filling the gap left by the Basic 2, the Basic 3 has a built-in espresso mode that automatically detects flow and stops the timer, working perfectly with all kinds of home and commercial espresso machines.
-
Pioneering Brew Ratio Calculation: No more mental maths or looking up charts; the scale works out the water ratio for you automatically, keeping every cup consistent.
-
Greater Sensitivity: The minimum weighing threshold drops from 0.5 g to 0.2 g, so whether you're topping up a few beans or weighing precisely, it responds faster and more accurately.
-
Strong Interference Resistance: Upgraded hardware shrugs off everyday electromagnetic interference (from phones, microwaves and so on), so readings are steadier and no longer jump around.
-
Slimmer and More Portable Than Ever: The body is just 2 cm thick and 14 cm wide, and weighs 23.08% less, so it stores easily and is effortless to carry when you're out.

💡 Our Tip: If you're currently using the Basic 2, the most noticeable improvements with the Basic 3 will be a “more precise response” and “more versatile modes”. Especially if you regularly brew espresso, the Basic 3's automatic timer and ultra-slim body let it fit easily on the drip tray, something that was harder to do with the older model.
