Hi Ngan, if you're making a recipe from another book or website and you're provided with weight measurements, I would encourage you to use the weights they list in their conversion chart. The exception is if you're using our flour in their recipe, in which case you might want to start with the 120g/cup weight we list for our Unbleached All-Purpose flour and then add more flour, if necessary. The reason I say this is that if they are assuming another brand of flour is being used, that flour will likely have less protein, which means it won't develop as much gluten or absorb as much liquid. Starting with our measurement for the flour will give you a little more wiggle room, since you can always add more flour, but it's hard to take it out. By the way, our Ingredient Weight Chart lists a cup of packed brown sugar as weighing 213g, and a cup of granulated sugar as weighing 198g.
