Watermelong is kinda nice blended by itself as a smoothie-ish drink, maybe add some mint and a pinch of salt

I know I'm late to tbsp chat but the imperial system makes fine sense in the era of global trade before standards were introduced: everything is divisible by 4, so dividing a barrel (~32 gal depending on headspace) into half was the same as dividing a gallon into quarts and then pints. Easy way to break down bulk goods whether they were fresh water, beer, pickles, or herring. Have a scale? "A pint a pound, the world around". ...I've worked in beverage alcohol long enough that I have to justify this archaic nonsense.

Which gallon, imp. or US? From memory an imperial gallon is ~4.4L, a US gallon is around ~3.8 L Most pints in pubs are imperial pints, but no one uses imperial gallons in the US do they? Also, any budding aussie cook is going to be confused when they learn the Tbsp* here is 20ml, not 15ml like the US. The teaspoon is still 5ml though, so the aussie tablespoon has 4 teaspoons for some unknown reason. While you are mentioning divisible by '4s' making sense, why is the US Tbsp shunning that convention and switching to 3 tsp to a Tbsp? Anyway, that's the whole problem with imperial measurements, there is no standard. Imperial and US measurements are both used randomly, and then some other colony makes up their own standard too. *I always liked the convention of tablespoon with a capital T and teaspoon with a lower case t, ie tsp.

You'd have to make a teaspoon 7.5 mls or 3.25 mls for it to make sense. I think that american measures are interesting and fun. They are so cutesy and it is nice to know a persons length compared to the size of their feet and their twelvths, or the amount of troy pounds (480 grains - which is based on the mass of a single cereal) that goes into a cake which you then measure the diameter of in feet... because feet and grain and cakes are something that is logically connected. Wait.. the pound is based on the troy pound, but now you changed it to something else - which we don't know what is, but you changed it because it felt better or something. So when I measure in american terms I am amused. And let's not get started on the entire "Let's measure temperature on the scale of how hot it is inside of an average mans rear end", where you would think that 200*F would equal two mans asses, because when 100*F is one man rear end, then twice that should be twice as much... oh no.. Let's not make it so.. We need to confuse the french.. So you have us confounded and amused, and I would like to thank you for it... In my mind a tablespoon measure is about two ejaculates (one after the other - expect diminishing returns to scale). Luckily now I know that to figure out what a pint is, all I need is a barrel, and start subdividing by four (because americans have 4 fingers on each hand, not five, which would have given a decimal system). I need to buy a barrel...

Meh, I grew up cooking and baking with cups and spoons, so they make sense to me. But when I got my engineering degree, we had to learn to do all the calculations in both English and Metric, which was a huge pain in the rear end. Thermodynamics in particular is much easier in Metric. Also, Metric fastener sizes and thread-pitches make a hell of a lot more sense then the conventional sizes in Old English.

pile of brown posted:I have no idea what just happened but if your rear end hits an internal temp of 100f with any regularity you either need a doctor or more lube Your temp scale has been calibrated with freezing point of brine as zero, 2 to the power of six as normal body temp, which then has been arbitrarily altered because it would be more 'logical' to have 100 as normal body temp, which then again was altered because the conversion to Celsius was too hard. So basically yeah - your scale is from freezing point of brine to rear end temp of a grownup with a bit of flu. That is at least the story I was told.

I was told in school that it used to be illegal to do experiments involving humans, so 100F was set to the body temperature of a horse because it was thought to be a same temperature. 0F is when the coastline freezes, which agrees with the brine you mentioned. I don't know of there is an actual, historical reason that isn't at least part legend at this point.

The freezing point of brine was the lowest easily-obtainable temperature in a lab at the time it was established. Initially 100 degrees was human body temperature but it wasn't calibrated correctly initially so human body temperature got skewed down a bit. It's not total madness, but it's not amazing.

The freezing point of natural salt water would be around 18*F - the way that it was done was:Fahrenheit posted:"the limit of the most intense cold obtained artificially in a mixture of water, of ice, and of sal-ammoniac or even of sea-salt" This means that he put reproducibility of the calibration point first, and in accordance with the chemicals that were available to him at the time, but I guess the reproducibility of the calibration point was a good thing - later he though abandoned the calibration point, when it was shown that depending on the purity of the chemicals used in his ice/water/brine solution it would differ to greatly, and put a new calibration point in at 32 - which was the liquification point of ice, easily reproducible. Then he went onwards and sat the 2 to the power of 6 (96 degrees F) calibration at 'blood temperature of a healthy man (or ejaculate, if you're afraid of needles)' - which is a bad calibration point, since it is not reproducible to precision - women who are ovulating experience an increase in morning temperature, morning temperature is generally lower than active temperature, average normal temperature will differ between people etc. He realised this mistake, and sat a new calibration point at 212* F which is the boiling temperature of water at zero altitude. The rationale for using 212 as a calibration point may be in it being 180 away from 32, and 180 is the number of degrees there's between opposing poles (how geometry and temperature is becoming mixed together is beyond me). Basically - He tried the same as Celcius, using the same calibration points (solidifying of water and vaporisation temp of water). It is not a stupid scale or method as such, it was clearly a natural scientist trying out different calibration points, and putting good thought into his work, some of it is alchemical in nature (the opposing poles of water being 180* apart because... circles and nature and poo poo), some of it is trial and error. You could claim that due to the zero level atmospheric pressure not being constant around the globe, having a scale calibrated to something that changes transition points according to the pressure is stupid - which I guess is why Kelvin.. My conclusion is that: The Fahrenheit scale is a perfect in accompany with the logic of the 'divide by two' scale of barrels in the US - they're quaint, amusing and perfect in a way that is entirely useless.

So I never post in GWS, and I didn't see a dedicated baking thread, so I don't know if this is the place to ask, but I'm having a hell of a time making sugar cookies how I'd like to. Right now all the recipes I've tried for them make a fairly dry, puffy, semisweet cookie similar to those you'll see iced and in boxes by the dozen at chain grocery stores. Ideally I'd like to make them the way you find them in places like Subway and the place I used to always get them from as a kid: Perkins. These sugar cookies are much flatter, chewier, softer and generally much sweeter than the ones I've made myself. What should I be doing to make my sugar cookies like these?

As a middling baker, my instinct is less leavener (baking soda/powder) and more fat (butter or shortening).
