  • I like that metric is based around the weight of water, in that a litre of water weighs a kilogram. As you can apply that to various liquids with more or less accuracy, it makes judging amounts in recipes that much easier. For instance if the recipe calls for 225gm of apple juice, you could get away with using scales if it’s easier.

  • I think I've posted this before, and someone inevitably posted the reason, but

    Why is it a kilogram? 1 litre should = 1 gram surely. Arbitrarily a thousand times smaller.
