You didn't read the entire post, obviously didn't comprehend it all...
and taking something out of context makes you a liar.

By weight is preferable to volume, but that doesn't mean bakers use a
scale, just as I said here, they use weight by reading the weight
printed on the package. Why would they bother to weigh out pounds
when the pounds are printed on the package. duh Recipes for
commercial bakeries are developed around the standard package sizes,
there is no need to measure... ingredients are handled as little as
possible, wasted motion is lost profits.

Professional bakers don't need any stink'n scale, they got all the
scale they need with their eyes and hands. A professional baker can
scoop a five pound pile of flour by hand the same as a profesional
butcher can trim out a five pound roast... after many thousands of
times both can come within an ounce.... the gal at the deli I go to
can slice different cold cuts to within one slice of a pound every
time.. but she's only been at it some 40 years.

You see, JSB, the difference is you can't actually do anything (I know
that from your posts), you can only talk trash... that's why you don't
know anything.
