Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 4.73g/tsp = grams
  1. Start with 20.7 teaspoons of butter
  2. 1 teaspoon of butter = 4.73g
  3. 20.7 × 4.73 = 97.89g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Butter is easiest to measure using the markings on the wrapper. One US stick = 113g = 1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons.

Understanding the Units

What is a Teaspoon?

A teaspoon (tsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 4.929 milliliters or 1/3 of a tablespoon. It is the standard measure for spices, leaveners, extracts, and other small-quantity ingredients.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 97.89 g, based on butter having a density of 227g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 4.73 (grams per teaspoon for butter). For 20.7 teaspoons: 20.7 × 4.73 = 97.89 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh butter on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 97.89 g ÷ 4.73 = 20.7 teaspoons. Or use the Grams to Teaspoons converter.
