Yes. In French recipes, I found conversion table from volume of ingredients
to their mass in grams. The reason is exactly for those who do not have a
scale and/or for convenience.

The tasse exists, and as you said its not well defined. What I mostly
encountered in recipes is the word mesure, which stands for a unit of
measurement; it could be a cup, a wine glass or a bowl. The concept is
based on proportions. For example: you are going to use 1 mesure (or
volume) of s

on a second thought, I think that cup and (its portions) are very useful in
measuring dry ingredients(flour, sugar, yeast, etc), or pet food, without using
kitchen scales, which most people don't have at home. In Russia, since the
recipes used grams, I used some conversion table (how many grams
Jim made a good point and a bad point - an eight of a litre is a little
small, probably a quarter of litre would be better (as in Australia & South
Africa).

in Russia, "cup" was used mostly for home culinary recipes.
when I started to explore culinary arts back when I was a teenager in Russia,
it was very confusing too, because there were two sizes of cups (called not
cup, but glass (and the expression there is "to drink vodka by glasses" ;-) ))

Yes, maybe he had his sentence built backwards. Turning it around as you
suggest would make more sense.
Of course, the way to do that would be to amend the remnant of the
Mendenhall Order in the US Code (or wherever it is) and re-define the
gallon as equaling 4 L exactly.
That will never hap
Jim makes a good point.
I think Mark was probably thinking that NIST should redefine a cup as
an eighth of a liter.

Mark. I created the survey with a free Survey Monkey option that
offers limited features.
If I had the money, I would pay the fee to get this survey out to more
people, but I am pretty broke right now.

The liter is defined by the CGPM, not by NIST.

Yes, of course. But if the metric petition can get 37,000 signatures, somebody out there must be doing some publicity work for metrication, so if it is not Facebook or Twitter, how precisely are they spreading the word about the survey? Mark- Original Message -From: cont...@metricpioneer.co
