FAQ
- Is grams-to-cups reliable for Pesto?
- As a working estimate. Sticky materials hold pockets of air; expect 10–20 % noise. Weighing avoids the issue.
- Should I warm Pesto before converting grams to cups?
- Slightly warmer Pesto packs cleanlier into a cup, reducing error. Do not exceed what the recipe tolerates.
