I don't use it in my wine making, just as an example. Well, I used it
1 time in an orange wine when I had everything set up only to discover I had about 1/4 pound of sugar in the house. But I had about 10 pounds of confectioner's sugar. Worked pretty well in that. Didn't leave any haze or other problems. Thanks for the info on the sugar and scales, though.
