Yep, only liquids should be measured in volume, since liquids do not compress

    no thank you give me the measurement in weight so i can have a digital read on it and not have to use my disgusting human eyeball to estimate

    also so that i don't have to re-wash and dry my one measuring spoon 5 times

    1L of water/milk = 1kg. This holds true for most liquids that are measured by volume in metric recipes.

    Until one day you have to bake 3,000 Stroopwafels to save the local coffee shop** and you realize that your kitchen scale is about to become the stickiest object known to mankind because you don't know how much more liquids with super high viscosity weigh per liter..

    **specific situation may vary based on how many tulips YOUR country produces per square kilometer.

    Those wouldn't be liquids but solids, no?

    But I respect the effort in bringing up a stupidly extreme theoretical situation that you'd never encounter in your kitchen
