Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 167g/cup = grams
  1. Start with 0.51 cups of semolina flour
  2. 1 cup of semolina flour = 167g
  3. 0.51 × 167 = 85.17g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Humidity affects semolina flour weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

Understanding the Units

What is a Cup?

There are three cup standards used worldwide. The US cup (236.588 ml) is used in American recipes. The metric cup (250 ml) is standard in Australia, New Zealand, and some parts of Asia. The imperial cup (284.131 ml) appears in older British and Canadian recipes. A metric cup holds about 5.7% more than a US cup, while an imperial cup holds about 20% more. Using the wrong standard can noticeably affect a recipe.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 85.17 g, based on semolina flour having a density of 167g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 167 (grams per cup for semolina flour). For 0.51 cups: 0.51 × 167 = 85.17 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh semolina flour on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, sift or whisk first to break up clumps, then spoon into the measuring cup and level off. Do not scoop directly from the bag.
Yes, quite a bit. If you spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it off, you will get about 167 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 183.7 to 208.75 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 85.17 g ÷ 167 = 0.51 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
