FAQ
- Does humidity add weight to Flaxseed, whole over time?
- A little — dry granules absorb ambient moisture and can gain 1–2 % mass in humid environments. Store airtight to keep the table values close to nominal.
- Can I swap Flaxseed, whole for a different granulation without changing the gram count?
- By weight the conversion is unchanged — a gram is a gram. Volume readings do shift, so match granulation if a recipe specifies cups.
