## Questions

### How many grams is a cup of flour?

A US cup of all-purpose flour is about 120 g, from the King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart. Weights change with how you fill the cup: scooped flour weighs noticeably more than spooned and levelled flour.

### Is a cup 240 ml or 250 ml?

A US customary cup is 236.6 ml. Many countries use a 250 ml metric cup, and Australian tablespoons are 20 ml, while US and metric tablespoons are about 15 ml. Choose the size your recipe uses.

### What is 180 °C in Fahrenheit and gas mark?

180 °C is 356 °F. Recipes round that to 350 °F, which is gas mark 4. A fan oven usually needs about 20 °C less, so 180 °C conventional is about 160 °C on a fan.

### Why do weights differ between cookbooks?

The same cup holds a different weight of flour, sugar or oats depending on how packed it is, the humidity, and the brand. Use grams when a recipe gives them, and treat cup weights as a guide.
