How Much Is 21.33 Grams of Chili Powder in Teaspoons?
21.33 grams of chili powder equals 8.00 tsp. Chili powder has a density of 128g per cup. Because grams measure weight and teaspoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 21.33 grams of chili powder
- 1 cup of chili powder = 128g
- 21.33g ÷ 128g/cup = 0.17 cups × 48 = 8.00 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Ground spices like chili powder settle and compact during storage. Stir or fluff before measuring by volume for a consistent amount.

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 Teaspoon?
In baking, teaspoon measurements are critical for ingredients where precision changes the outcome. Too much baking soda (1 tsp = 6g) creates a metallic taste, while too little means flat results.
