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 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 Gallon?
For large-batch cooking, 1 US gallon is approximately 3.8 liters. The imperial gallon (4.5 liters) is no longer commonly used in the UK for cooking, as most modern British recipes use metric measurements.

If you have a kitchen scale, weighing heavy cream gives you an exact starting point for this conversion. If you need to measure by volume instead, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Very close. Pure liquid densities are consistent across brands, so the grams to gallons conversion for heavy cream 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 heavy cream fills a different number of gallons than a gram of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
