    Not confusing, just crappy.

    Volume for a powder is bad because they can “fluff up” when poured reducing the amount being added, so proportions are wrong.

    Liquids don’t hold air like flour does.

      Sure, so then you do it by weight and I have to ask if your measuring the flours weight in Florida or Arizona and what time of year it is to figure out how much humidity is in it.

      Food should never require that amount of accuracy. It’s a bloody cake, how much flour and water do you need, about that much. Eggs? A few lol, only have 2 fuck it that’s fine
