The cooking measurement converter opens with cup selected as the unit. Type an amount such as 1 1/2 or 0.5, choose the ingredient, and the grams update as you type. A grid lists every other unit for comparison.
Set the cup and spoon sizes to match your recipe, because they change the volume: an Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, while a US or metric tablespoon is about 15 ml. For the reverse, use grams to cups.
How to convert cups to grams
- Type the amount, such as 1 1/2 or 0.5, and pick its unit.
- Choose the ingredient to turn volume into weight, and the cup and spoon sizes your recipe uses.
- Read the grams or cups, the grid of every unit, or the oven table.
Questions
Why do I need to pick an ingredient?
A cup measures volume, and the same volume of different foods weighs different amounts. Flour is lighter than sugar, so one cup of sugar gives more grams than one cup of flour. Choose the closest match, or None if you need only volume and weight conversions.
What if my ingredient is not in the list?
Pick the closest one and treat the grams as a guide. If a recipe gives its own weight in grams, use that figure rather than the converter's.
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.
