    Weighing takes as much, maybe less, time than using measuring cups and spoons. o_O
    Oh yes. I was amazed at how much less of a mess I made the first time I baked using a scale

    I use measuring cups more often than my food scale. I think the only things I've used my scale for recently are potatoes & sunflower seeds. I've lost pretty consistently using measuring cups - you just have to stay aware of yourself when you're using them & don't let yourself get carried away (aka, mounding/packing/overflowing).

    Which is why the scale works to double check how much you're actually putting in the cups.
