I really, really struggle reading scales on a measuring jug or in a measuring spoon. I just can’t gauge if it’s on the level or under/over it because my spatial awareness and depth perception is awful. As a result I screw things up.
Any ideas? Are there better ones I could buy?
Measuring cups and jugs are absolute bs. Theres no consistency within them, not just across brands but within the same brand and model too.
I recommend going by weight. Get a kitchen scale. Life saver. Much more convenient too!
So I look for a scale that measures liquid by weight? How much should I spend to get a good one?
I agree with this.
If I am measuring “for real” I use a scale and grams. Mine can also do ounces & pounds.
If I am measuring in a measuring cup, my kids laugh at me but I crouch down so the liquid is at eye level so that I can see it better. And most things don’t need to be all that exact. The ones that do, convert them to weight measures.
Yep going by weight is the best. I’m not sure about the cost for where you live. If you’re in the us, just get oxo. Everything by oxo is always good. I swear I’m not sponsored.
Or you could check the atk website, they do good testing for what’s good.
