Kitchen conversion chart

1 cup = 8 fl oz

16 Tbsp · 48 tsp · 237 mL · 4 cups = 1 quart · 16 cups = 1 gallon

This page puts the conversions you reach for most on one printed sheet: cups to fluid ounces, tablespoons, teaspoons and mL, then quarts and gallons, plus the weight of a cup of the most common baking ingredients. Print it and tape it inside a cabinet door, or save it to your phone.

Every value comes from the same conversion engine as the rest of the site, built on NIST definitions, and the ingredient weights come from King Arthur Baking. Volume is labeled fl oz and weight is labeled oz by weight, so the two stay separate on the sheet.

How to read it

Find the amount your recipe gives and read across the row. When a spoon combination is listed, such as 5 Tbsp + 1 tsp for 1/3 cup, it is an exact match with standard US measuring spoons. Use the ingredient weights only with a kitchen scale; they do not apply to liquid measuring cups.
