Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this use a US cup?

Yes. The factor is tied to the US cup definition (236.588 mL), not a metric cup.

Do piece size or settling change the result for Milk Chocolate?

Milk Chocolate keeps one reference basis here, but fragment size and how the pieces settle can change practical volume. Keep prep style consistent if you want repeatable spoon and cup estimates.
