Recipes in English units of measure (by which I include the American variation) are usually volumetric measures unless otherwise explicitly noted. Hence references to "sift before measuring" for flour, etc. Do I understand that your variation was weights of ingredients?
The recipe already included an appropriate liquid. It was from a British source, after all!
