In plain English — what does this do?
📏 Some countries say ‘30 degrees’ and others say ‘86 degrees’ for the same weather! Some say ‘5 km’, others say ‘3 miles’. This tool swaps between them instantly so you always know what it means.
A cooking converter helps you scale recipes and switch between volume units (teaspoons, cups, mL, etc.) and weight units (grams, ounces, pounds) used in cooking and baking. US recipes use cups and tablespoons; European recipes typically use metric grams and millilitres. Note that volume-to-weight conversions depend on ingredient density — this tool covers volume and weight separately.

❓ Common questions
- How many teaspoons are in a tablespoon?
- 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon (US). This is consistent across US measurements. In the metric system, 1 tablespoon is defined as 15 mL and 1 teaspoon as 5 mL, also a 3:1 ratio.
- How many mL is a US cup?
- 1 US customary cup = 236.588 mL. In the metric system, a cup is sometimes rounded to 250 mL (used in Australia and Canada). Always check which standard a recipe uses.
- How do I convert cups to grams?
- Cups measure volume; grams measure weight. The conversion depends on the ingredient's density. 1 cup of water ≈ 236.6 g, but 1 cup of flour ≈ 120–130 g (depending on how it's packed), and 1 cup of sugar ≈ 200 g. Use a per-ingredient density reference for precise baking.
- What is the difference between a fluid ounce and a weight ounce?
- A fluid ounce (fl oz) measures volume: 1 US fl oz = 29.574 mL. A weight ounce (oz) measures mass: 1 oz = 28.35 g. They are coincidentally close for water (1 fl oz of water ≈ 29.57 g) but differ for other ingredients.
- How many grams is a pound in cooking?
- 1 pound (lb) = 453.592 grams. Large quantities of meat, produce, and baking recipes often list weight in pounds in the US and in grams or kilograms in Europe.
