Hi Terry We use the Vivienne talking scales from Caretec. They will allow you to differentiate between oil, water or milk, as well as other substances you might want to ascertain. They are compact, have a good voice, but aren't cheap at £115. Good luck.

Also, is there anything that will measure both fluids and powder, so only having to have the one item in the kitchen? Thanks.
