FAQ

Does crystal size affect how much Sesame seeds fits in a cup?
Yes — finer grains pack tighter, adding 5–10 % more weight per cup. This table uses standard granulation.
Can I shake the cup to settle Sesame seeds?
Shaking causes settling and adds weight. For accuracy, fill gently and level without tapping or shaking.
