How Much Is 0.04 Cups of Self-Rising Flour in Grams?
0.04 cups of self-rising flour equals 4.80 g. Self-rising flour has a density of 120g per cup (120g per cup), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.04 cups of honey would be 13.6 g.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.04 cups of self-rising flour
- 1 cup of self-rising flour = 120g
- 0.04 × 120 = 4.8g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh self-rising flour on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

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?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
