Measuring Tip

Different flour types have very different weights per cup. Always check the specific flour your recipe calls for rather than using a generic "flour" conversion.

Understanding the Units

What is a Cup?

In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.

What is a Gram?

A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.

The most accurate way is to weigh bread flour on a kitchen scale. If you are measuring by volume, sift or whisk the flour first to break up clumps, then spoon it into the measuring cup and level it off. Do not scoop directly from the bag, which compacts the flour and can increase the weight by 20-30%.

Close, but not exactly. The cups to grams conversion for bread flour may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.

Weighing is more consistent than volume measuring. A cup of bread flour can vary by 10-20% depending on how it's scooped, packed, or leveled. Weighing gives the same result every time, which is especially important in baking where precision affects texture and rise.
