Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Do scoop style or settling change the result for Cornmeal?

Cornmeal keeps one spoon-and-level reference basis here, but scoop style, aeration, and settling can change practical density. Spooned, packed, and sifted flour do not weigh the same by volume.
