Does crystal size affect how much Rigatoni, cooked fits in a cup?

Yes — finer grains pack tighter and add 5–10 % more weight per cup. The table uses standard granulation.

Can I shake or tap the cup to settle Rigatoni, cooked?

No — tapping compacts the grain and adds weight. Fill gently and level without shaking for accurate readings.
