I like my glass measuring cups but the printing on them has really disappeared over time. Does anyone have a measuring cup that they love?

      I do have a scale, but a lot of American recipes don’t give the weights, just volumes. As an American myself who likes to bake, I have generally switched to using the scale when my recipe has the measurements.

        Fellow American. I also use a scale for most things, including liquids. A quick Internet search will get you a volume to mass conversation. Do it a few times and you’ll remember. For straight up baking, I find that ratios are the safest route to to. I also use a ton of touch for things like doughs and batters, but I also tend to make the same set of things, or close relatives, again and again.
