Why is granulated sugar easier to measure more precisely than brown sugar?


Unlike granulated sugar, brown sugar has a tendency to pack down and become hard because it contains 2% moisture, which has a tendency to dry out. Brown sugar lumping prevents precise measurements. Brown sugar is best measured by pressing it firmly into a fractional metal measuring cup and leveling it.
