Well, andy, you want to measure resolution. So you put a container, any
old container, on the scale. Get out your crayons and write down the
number. now add 1 tsp water to the container. Write down the new
number. Get out your calculator and subtract the first number from the
second number. The difference should be 5 grams. Now repeat only add
1/2 teaspoon water. The difference should be 2 or 3 grams.

Did I type that slowly enough for you to catch on?
