I'm an engineering student working part-time in a hotel kitchen. Recently I had a disagreement with the Chef who told me that liters are the same as kilograms and anything I can measure in liters I can measure with a scale.
He put me in charge of making crepe and waffle mixtures and he just gave me a scale (measuring weight) while all of the liquids in the recipes are being measured in lt and not in weight (kg or grams).
Is he correct?
I'm positive that lt is not the same as kg since they measure two different things, volume and weight.
Maybe by approximation, you can actually assume they are the same? Though I make recipes of 30kg in total weight, that should break the approximation since the quantity is quite big and there are gonna be huge calculation errors.
