Sure they're direct increments. You just have to know what the increments
are,
and how to convert to more conveniently-sized units. 1% salt in a quart of
soup (or whatever it may be) is still 1% in 100 gallons of the same soup.

Lessee, hmmm
1 quart = 4cups = 48 tablespoons = 192 teaspoons
1% of 192 = roughly 2tsp. which sounds about right, if a little salty
But 1% of 100 gallons = 1 gallon
That sounds downright briny
?
Now that just doesn't compute.
We used to cook very large amounts for fund raisers. Used fifty gallon
kettles. Never used more than two cups salt per kettle, but I often make a
half gallon of soup with two teaspoons of salt.
Never thought about it like that. Wonder why that is?
