The cooking and baking conversion charts on this page will help you convert measurements from cups to grams and ounces as well as convert recipes from yeast to sourdough or sourdough to yeast. You’ll also find an egg size conversion chart. Show Measuring your ingredients by weight (grams) will certainly make you a better baker as accuracy is paramount in baking. But I must say: If you like to bake, do yourself a favor and get a digital scale. You’ll be rewarded with more consistent results, less cleanup, and a streamlined process. Look for a model that easily toggles between ounces and grams, preferably in decimals or both decimals and fractions, in 1-gram or smaller increments. Make sure the scale includes a tare function, a button that resets the scale to zero so that you may weigh additional ingredients sequentially in the same bowl, or can zero out the bowl or pan weight to determine the weight of its contents. My choice is My Weigh KD8000 Multi-Purpose Digital Kitchen & Hobby Scale. It has an 8000 gram capacity with 1 gram resolution. A budget-friendly version is Etekcity’s kitchen scale that costs only $13.99 and is the #1 best seller kitchen scale on Amazon right now. For greater precision when weighing spices, baking soda, etc., I use Weigh Grams’s Pocket Scale, which allows you to weigh a maximum capacity of 100 grams with 0.01 gram resolution (in order to keep it calibrated and accurate, I also recommend buying this calibration weight). For other baking equipment that I’ve tested over the years and recommend, take a look at my Essential Baking Tools & Equipment page. If you still like to proceed with using measuring cups and spoons or if you are cooking or baking from a cookbook that doesn’t include weights of ingredients, feel free to use the baking conversion charts below, but be aware of the fact that I’ve measured every ingredient below myself. Weights can vary considerably depending on the method used to measure them. For flour, I provided weight equivalents using the scoop-and-sweep method (use a spoon to fluff up the flour in the bin, dip the measuring cup into the flour and scoop it up, then sweep across the top of the cup with the back of a knife to level it), but the author of the book you are baking from may have used the spoon-and-sweep method, which will give you a different amount. Always check the book to see if this has been clearly mentioned. For other ingredients where the measuring method affects the weight—such as cocoa powder, confectioners’ sugar, cornstarch, nut flours, matcha, baking powder, and spices—I have provided weight equivalents using the spoon-and-sweep method, where the ingredient is spooned into a measuring cup or spoon, then swept across the top with the back of a knife to level it. Where a volume measurement isn’t useful (e.g., for chocolate or some of the fresh produce), weight measurements are provided in both ounces and grams. In converting Imperial to metric weights, I have rounded to the nearest 5 grams above 1 ounce and to the nearest 50 grams above 1 kilogram. When converting butter volume to weight, ounces are rounded to the nearest 0.1 ounce and grams to the nearest 5 grams. CONVERSION TABLES Cup to Mililiter (ml)

If you still prefer to have a long and slow rise, use 1/4 teaspoon of instant yeast in the recipe. If you prefer a short and fast rise, use somewhere between 1+1/2 teaspoons to 2+1/4 teaspoons of instant yeast for recipes that call for 300-500 grams of flour. Let’s say your sourdough recipe uses 200 grams of sourdough, 300 grams of flour and 250 grams of water. You’ll now use 400 grams (300 + (200/2)) of flour, 350 grams (250 + (200/2)) of water and 2 teaspoons of instant yeast. (↑ back to the top)YEAST TO SOURDOUGH CONVERSION First, you need to decide how much sourdough starter to use in the recipe. Typically, you’ll need 1/5th of the weight of the flour. Let’s say the recipe uses 500 grams of flour, 400 grams of water and 2+1/4 teaspoons of yeast. You’ll need 100 (500/5) grams of sourdough starter. Next, divide the amount of sourdough starter you are going to use in the recipe by half and subtract those amounts from the weight of the flour and water in the recipe. This means, you’ll use 450 grams (500 – (100/2)) of flour and 350 grams (400 – (100/2)) of water in addition to the sourdough starter. Also, omit the yeast called for in the recipe. Please note that using sourdough starter in place of commercial yeast will considerably lengthen the time for the dough to rise.
