Understanding the Units

What is a Cup?

A cup is a US customary unit of volume equal to 236.588 milliliters or 8 fluid ounces. It is the most common volume measurement in American recipes. One cup can be divided into 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons.

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 149.45 g, based on yogurt having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 245 (grams per cup for yogurt). For 0.61 cups: 0.61 × 245 = 149.45 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh yogurt on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 149.45 g ÷ 245 = 0.61 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
