Correct salt measurment?

Alot of neck and shoulder pain,feeling loopy from the anxiety and pain meds.But considering the alternatives,I feel great!!And thanks for asking!

 

I think for sure it would be far better to weigh it then dry measure with a cup. Although both will vary since it absorbs moisture which will cause it to be more or less compact or dense at different times.

 

Oh,theres no doubt it'll take a little experimenting,i'm just looking for a less time wasted in tweeking it,so yes your right,if i know the weight of what i used to make lets say 3 gallon,i can also dump the same weight in a measuring cup to see where it's at in ounces.But it's not like a have a busy schedual and can't take the time to tweek,i'm just sorta lazy these days!! ;D

 

When I first started mixing saltwater I measured in cups and found that I could never get it dead on every time. For the last 6 months or so I have been doing it by weight and I nail it every single time.

 

...I take it you have use of a scale to weigh it with? :-/

 

Yeah, just use a small stainless steel cooking scale from walmart. There about 15 bucks I think. I just place a Styrofoam cup on it and zero out the weight of the cup and go from there.

 

yeah,i got an old postal one that'll read in ounces

 

Thanks, I'll have to look into that.
