Help Measuring SN? My scale just broke

[Minudah]

I don't know what the hell happened. It accurately got the ml with the water as I expected, then it shut off, then I turned it back on and it's reading 60ml water as 450ml. WTF?

How do I measure the SN now that this thing is broken? Can I use teaspoons? I'm thinking 12g SN.


I got just over 1/4 cup at 60ml water. Is a tablespoon 12g SN? Or use two teaspoons? I don't know shit about measurements

Two things. First of all your scale probably isn't broken. Just hit the tare button to zero to put it back to baseline. Secondly is that your suppose to use about 15 grams of SN. Which I think is about 3 teaspoons or 1 tablespoon.
Also "ml" is a measure of volume not weight. So your suppose to use a measuring cup for that, not a scale.

Did you set it to 0 after putting the container on it, before you add the water?
Seems like that would be the weight of the glass

Yes tare is the same thing as setting it back to 0.

Yeah seems like he/she tared it then put the glass on.
@Minudah im convinced your scale is working
