Cups to ml, tbsp to tsp, and the rest

Cooking conversions are not all exact. A tablespoon is exactly 3 teaspoons, but a US cup is 236.6 ml by definition and is rounded to 240 ml in most recipes, while a metric cup is 250 ml. Volume also only converts cleanly for liquids and pourable solids, because a cup of flour and a cup of sugar weigh different amounts.

  • Inputs: Amount.
  • Output: the measurement in the unit you selected.
  • Method: the published Unit Conversion relationship between the Amount and the measurement in the unit you selected.

Quick answer

1 US cup is about 240 ml, 1 tablespoon is 15 ml and 1 teaspoon is 5 ml, so 1 tbsp is exactly 3 tsp. A UK or Australian tablespoon is 20 ml instead — for anything precise, weigh the ingredient in grams.

How does the Cooking Measurement Converter work?

Cooking Measurement Converter converts directly from your input — the amount and the two units you pick feed the formula. Your numbers stay in the tab and the converted measurement recalculates the moment a field changes.

How the Cooking Measurement Converter works

What separates Cooking Measurement Converter from a bare number is the trail behind it: Amount go in, the output comes out, and the route between the two stays on screen.

Using the Cooking Measurement Converter

  1. Amount — one of the values cooking measurement converter builds from; the result reflects exactly what you type.
  2. When the result on cooking measurement converter looks plausible but not quite right, check the units line first — a scale error shows up there before anywhere else.
  3. Nudge each Amount on the cooking measurement converter page in turn and note how far the converted measurement moves; the ranking rarely matches intuition.

The formula behind the result

Each term in Cooking Measurement Converter can be traced to a line of the Unit Conversion definition; nothing is added between the Amount and the output.

Worked example: with amount of 1, this cooking measurement converter calculation returns 240.00 ml. The same run reports 1 cup = 240.00 ml.

Understanding the result

The result is the headline answer from Cooking Measurement Converter; the supporting figures beneath it and the step list give the context needed to judge it.

Where it helps

Cooking Measurement Converter suits settling a question you keep coming back to, looking at the same question from another angle, and checking the converted measurement against a second source — the kind of question that arrives once a week and deserves a defensible number.

Common mistakes

Comparing a cooking measurement converter result with a quote that uses a different convention is not a like-for-like check, even when both numbers look similar.

Tip: Cooking Measurement Converter returns 240.00 ml at its defaults; double the Amount and it returns 480.00 ml.

Assumptions and limitations

Interpret the figure as an estimate for the case you described, not as a range — no confidence band is computed on Cooking Measurement Converter.

Why use this calculator

Because the same Cooking Measurement Converter serves a first-timer and a reviewer — one reads the result, the other reads the derivation, and both are on one screen.

Where Cooking Measurement Converter earns its keep: settling a question you keep coming back to, looking at the same question from another angle, and checking the converted measurement against a second source, and the smaller questions that sit around them. Enter a deliberately wrong value once on Cooking Measurement Converter and watch the output swing; the size of the swing is the cost of getting that field wrong.
