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

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?

The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 232.00 g, based on wheat bran having a density of 58g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 58 (grams per cup for wheat bran). For 4 cups: 4 × 58 = 232.00 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh wheat bran 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 58 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 63.8 to 72.5 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 232.00 g ÷ 58 = 4 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
