But here in the US we are used to measuring them in cups instead of grams. Hmmm, what to do in these cases? Well, you could weigh them out with a kitchen scale, if you have one, or instead, use our cups to ounces to grams charts below for common ingredients. You may print this general cup to ounce to milliliter chart for common measure conversions. These charts by ingredient are more precise. You may download or print them according to your own convenience. For small quantities up to 2 tablespoons , I use one of those tiny measuring shot glasses.
When buying new measuring cups especially pretty ones which look good but their accuracy may be questionable , I always check their calibration against my Cuisipro set and Pyrex jug. When using kitchen scales, I highly recommend a digital scale. Most are very reliable, though you should find a good brand which is quite sensitive to give the most accurate readings.
The advantage of using a digital scale is that, for many recipes, you can use the same bowl like the bowl of your stand mixer to measure all of your ingredients; after you have added an ingredient, you simply press Tare or Reset to have the scale back at zero before weighing your next ingredient.
I highly recommend having a few spare batteries for the digital scale on hand, just in case the batteries die whilst you are in the midst of cooking. All recipes are tested using weight measurements and, where possible, I recommend that you also use the same, especially for baking recipes. The US measurements using measuring cups and spoons are provided as a courtesy and are approximate.
If in doubt, please use the weight measurements. Your email address will not be published. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed. Very good point!! I would love to make Swedish recipes but there is no print for me to print this conversion chart. Grams or ml thank you. Hi Kay, The main difference with Australian recipes is that 1 tablespoon is 20ml, whereas 1 tablespoon is 15ml in other countries.
This small difference is unlikely to affect the outcome of most recipes, but just something to keep in mind. Hope this helps! I was so so pleased to find your blog. Your recipes look fantastic and I love the loads of extra information you give to help us novice bakers do better. I was especially excited to see your measurement conversions. I look forward to trying lots of your recipes.
Hi Jane, Thank you for your lovely comment! Once again thank you to you. As 8" round tins 3" deep are generally the most popular size, we'll use this as a starting point and advise how to scale up or down your mixture based on this. Let's begin with some examples - if you want to bake a 12" round cake but the recipe is only enough for an 8" round cake, you'd simply multiply the quantities in your recipe 2. But, if you'd rather bake a smaller 6" round cake, you'd divide the quantities by half.
