Measuring Tip
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
Understanding the Units
What is a Fluid Ounce?
A US fluid ounce (fl oz) is a unit of volume equal to 29.574 milliliters or 1/8 of a cup. It measures liquid volume and should not be confused with the ounce (oz), which measures weight.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
