Re: Cheap digital scale (up to 11 lbs.)

A neat little pile of salt in the middle of my palm is the right amount
for 6 cups of flour. Every now and then I check the amount with
a scale, and its always quite close to 20 grams. Similarly, a cup of
my flour weighs quite close to 5.5 ounces ~ 156 grams. But really,
now, that is just a curiosity.


Indeed a curiosity. My hand changes day to day. When I'm baking a lot,
the hand muscles minimize the little palm divit. And conversley, my
bread is excessively salty when my hands go to pot. This is the reason
I have a scale. The amount of salt is so important to me that I found
a lab scale accurate to within .00001 kg. Or perhaps for those working
class folk, find a decent board in the upscale neighborhood trash,
should the blockade allow your ingress, and balance it on the salt
shaker. You might need a notch in the board.
