What does the Cooking Measurements work out?

Cups, tablespoons and millilitres, plus grams for the ingredient you are actually using. It is one of the Unit Converters tools on Mondo Knows.

How is the Cooking Measurements calculated?

Volume is easy: a US cup is 236.6 millilitres, a tablespoon is three teaspoons. Weight is not, because a cup of flour and a cup of sugar weigh quite different amounts. The maths is short enough to check by hand: Grams = volume in millilitres × density (g/ml). Flour 0.53, granulated sugar 0.85, brown sugar 0.93, butter 0.911, rice 0.85, water 1.0.

A US cup is 236.6 ml; the metric cup used in Australia and New Zealand is 250 ml, which is about 6% more. Spooned and levelled flour is lighter than scooped flour, so weigh when precision matters.

How it works

Volume is easy: a US cup is 236.6 millilitres, a tablespoon is three teaspoons. Weight is not, because a cup of flour and a cup of sugar weigh quite different amounts. Pick the ingredient and Mondo uses its density, so a recipe written in cups can be weighed on a scale.

The formula

Grams = volume in millilitres × density (g/ml). Flour 0.53, granulated sugar 0.85, brown sugar 0.93, butter 0.911, rice 0.85, water 1.0.
