Measuring tip
Flour packs down as it sits, so a cup scooped straight from the bag can weigh noticeably more than one that was spooned in and leveled with a knife. Spoon and level for results closest to these numbers, or better, weigh it. When a recipe gives grams, a scale is always the most accurate choice.
