    But having industrial quantities is like most of the argument for using metric! You mean to tell me you’re not converting between kL and mL all the time and reaping the benefits of being able to just slide the decimal over? That’s a shame. I’m not sure that doing your everyday cooking in increments of 125g is all that useful then. The cup is sounding better and better.

      l is lowercase, an kl is not used. A kl is a m³, which water utilities charge by, and pools and interior volume are measured in.

      By industrial quantities I mean we don’t have a massive sack of flour we can just dip a mug into, or several quarts (wtf) of high fructose corn syrup lying around.

      Plus our cups vary in size from best china tea cup, to sports direct mug.

      You know where are with 500g of flour and 350mls of water.
