Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 9.81 grams of cooking wine
- 1 cup of cooking wine = 232g
- 9.81g ÷ 232g/cup = 0.04 cups × 0.5 = 0.02 pints
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

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 Pint?
The pint is one of the most confusing measurements across countries because the difference between US and UK versions is so large. Always check which country a recipe comes from before measuring in pints.
