Measuring Tip
Thickness varies between brands. Full-fat, low-fat, and non-fat versions can have slightly different weights per measuring cup. Weighing is more reliable if your recipe is precision-sensitive.
Understanding the Units
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.
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.
