Measuring rye flour by cup and by weight

Medium rye flour weighs about 106 g per cup. Rye has little gluten, so doughs made with it feel sticky and slack compared with wheat dough, and recipes usually cap rye at part of the total flour. Cup measures are especially unreliable with rye because the flour settles in the bag and compacts easily, so weigh it for repeatable loaves.
