How Much Is 30 Grams of Ginger (Ground) in Teaspoons?
30 grams of ginger (ground) equals 15.00 tsp. Ginger (ground) has a density of 96g 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 30 grams of ginger (ground)
- 1 cup of ginger (ground) = 96g
- 30g ÷ 96g/cup = 0.31 cups × 48 = 15.00 teaspoons

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?
A US teaspoon is 4.929 ml, a metric teaspoon is exactly 5 ml, and an imperial teaspoon is 5.919 ml. The metric and US versions are nearly identical (1.4% difference), but the imperial teaspoon is 20% larger. For most spices the difference is negligible, but for leaveners like baking powder it can affect the result.
