Thermomix TM7 Weighing Plate: Weighing without the mixing bowl

Thermomix TM7 Weighing Plate: Weighing without the mixing bowl

You know the scenario: you just want to weigh some sugar, portion out flour, or add a second ingredient. But then the mixing bowl is already in place. Remove everything, tare it again, find a bowl – and suddenly you've lost track of it all. That's exactly what the weighing platform for the Thermomix TM7 is for. Simply place it on top and weigh. We'll show you how it works and why the scale attachment for the Thermomix TM7 is so practical in everyday kitchen use.

What is a weighing platform for the TM7 – and what do you need it for?

The TM7 has a built-in scale. That's great for weighing ingredients in the mixing bowl. But if you want to measure ingredients separately, for example directly into a bowl or measuring cup, it can quickly become cumbersome.

The Mixcover weighing platform for the Thermomix TM7 fits directly onto the unit where the mixing bowl normally sits. This turns the built-in scale into a standalone kitchen scale. You can place any bowl, container, or individual ingredients directly on the weighing platform and weigh them as usual – without even touching the mixing bowl.

For €11.95, you get a straightforward addition to your TM7. Especially when baking, you'll quickly appreciate how practical this is.

How weighing without the mixing bowl works

Using it couldn't be easier:

Remove the mixing bowl and set it aside.

Attach the weighing platform. It is placed directly on the TM7's weighing platform and sits securely in place.

Turn on the TM7 and access the weighing function via the display as usual.

Place the bowl or container on the platform and tare it. The TM7 will then display the net weight.

Weigh out the ingredients. Flour, sugar, nuts, or liquids can be weighed just as you would on a separate kitchen scale.

Remove the weighing platform and reinsert the mixing bowl.

It sounds simple, and it is. But you save yourself the constant transferring and recalculating. When baking, where every gram counts, that's a significant difference.

When is a weighing platform especially worthwhile?

The cover for the Thermomix TM7 scale is useful not only for baking. It is especially handy in these situations:

Meal prep on the weekend: Weigh several ingredients for different dishes one after another without having to reinsert the mixing bowl each time.

Baking with multiple bowls: Measure dry and wet ingredients separately without having to keep transferring them back and forth.

Nutrient tracking: Accurately weigh portions of pasta, oats, or other ingredients.

Cooking with children: Children can weigh ingredients themselves. The weighing plate is large enough for regular bowls and provides plenty of stability.

Fully equip your TM7: The bundle is worth it

If you are setting up your TM7 or want to add practical accessories, take a look at the mixcover TM7/TM6 Baking & Steaming Set For €42.95, you get the weighing plate together with a Varoma silicone mould and a reusable baking mat. The parts are coordinated with one another and ready to use right away.

This is especially handy if you regularly use your TM7 for baking and steaming.

Want to expand your setup even further? The mixcover reusable baking mat for the Varoma tray (€15.95) is reusable, dishwasher-safe, and made to fit the TM7 perfectly.

Small helpers, big difference

Two more small helpers make everyday kitchen tasks easier:

The mixcover lid holder and scraper for the TM7 (€20.95) is handy when you need to set the lid aside while preparing ingredients. It keeps the lid clean and within easy reach instead of leaving it on the worktop.

The Mixcover spatula holder for TM7, TM6 and TM5 (€11.95) gives your scraper a dedicated place right on the appliance. It is a small thing, but you will no longer have to search for it between cooking spoons and measuring jugs.

Also practical: the Mixcover mixing bowl drying rack (€11.95) with integrated knife holder. You can use it to place the washed mixing bowl neatly while the knife dries safely.

Conclusion: Weighing with the TM7 – it can be that simple

The weighing plate for the TM7 is not a fancy gadget. It is one of those things you will miss in everyday life once you have used it. Whether you are baking, doing meal prep, or quickly weighing ingredients: weighing with the Thermomix without the mixing bowl is completely uncomplicated with this small setup.
