Quickly convert between common kitchen volume units like cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, fluid ounces, milliliters, and liters. Perfect for recipes that mix US and metric measurements.
All values are converted internally through milliliters (ml) using standard US recipe approximations:
For most home cooking and baking, these approximations are accurate enough. For professional baking or very delicate recipes, use a kitchen scale and ingredient-specific gram conversions.
