When you weigh flaxseeds do you weigh them before or after you grind them?

    If you were measuring with a spoon, that would be different, but the weight shouldn't fundamentally change just because you're grinding them. I find it easier to weigh them when they're whole, though.

    I measure before I grind. I was curious to see if there was any difference before and after and there is not enough to make any difference.
