Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this weight ounces or fluid ounces?

It is weight ounces. This page converts cup volume into ingredient mass, not fluid ounces.

Does packed vs leveled change the result?

This ingredient uses a leveled-cup handling basis, so packed or sifted fills can still shift practical density.
