Cooking Measurement Conversions

Browse by unit family. Conversions within volume or within weight are fixed; conversions between those families need an ingredient reference.

Start with the unit type

For cups, spoons, milliliters, liters, fluid ounces, pints, quarts, or gallons, choose a volume pair. For grams, kilograms, ordinary ounces, or pounds, choose a weight pair. If one side is volume and the other is weight, use the ingredient-aware group.

Cups and spoons

Common US kitchen measures.

Metric and US volume

Move between metric volume and US kitchen measures.

Pints, quarts, and gallons

Ingredient volume and weight

Grams, ounces, and pounds

US recipe context

Measuredish labels US customary cups, fluid ounces, pints, quarts, and gallons explicitly. Fluid ounces measure volume; ordinary ounces measure weight. Metric and Imperial look-alikes should not be substituted silently.
