Abstract

The invention relates to a kitchen appliance system with a base unit having a housing and with at least one accessory having an identification feature. A weighing module configured for recording a gross weight and a control device are provided at the base unit. Furthermore, a detection device configured to detect an identification feature of at least one accessory is provided at the base unit, and the control device is configured to detect a change in position of the at least one accessory relative to the base unit relative to the base unit, to retrieve weight information corresponding to an identification feature detected by the detection device, and to calculate a net weight based on a gross weight detected by the weighing module and taking into account the weight information. A corresponding method is also described.
