How Much Is 104.1 Grams of Water in Teaspoons?
104.1 grams of water equals 21.12 tsp. Water has a density of 236.59g 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 104.1 grams of water
- 1 cup of water = 236.59g
- 104.1g ÷ 236.59g/cup = 0.44 cups × 48 = 21.12 teaspoons
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 spoon 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 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.
