How Much Is 0.15 Teaspoons of Buttermilk in Grams?
Converting 0.15 teaspoons of buttermilk to grams gives 0.77 g. One teaspoon of buttermilk weighs 5.10g, so 0.15 teaspoons is 0.15 × 5.10 = 0.77g. This conversion is specific to buttermilk because each ingredient has a different density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.15 teaspoons of buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon of buttermilk = 5.10g
- 0.15 × 5.10 = 0.77g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

Understanding the Units
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.
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.
