Measuring Tip
Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.
Understanding the Units
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.
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.

Very close. Pure liquid densities are consistent across brands, so the grams to cups conversion for olive oil typically varies by less than 2-3%.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. A gram of olive oil fills a different number of cups than a gram of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
