How It Works
Every measure is converted through the milliliter using exact US definitions (1 tsp = 4.929 ml, 1 tbsp = 14.787 ml, 1 US cup = 236.588 ml), the metric cup (250 ml), and the imperial cup (284.131 ml, half an imperial pint).
Example
1 US cup = 236.588 ml = 16 tbsp = 48 tsp = 8 fl oz
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert between two specific units?
Enter your value, select the unit it's in from the "From unit" dropdown, and read the result off the row for the unit you want. Clicking a row makes that unit the new input, so you can chain conversions.
How many ml are in a cup?
Depends on the cup: US cup = 236.588 ml, metric cup = 250 ml, UK (imperial) cup = 284.131 ml. Recipes usually say which; metric-cup countries include Australia and NZ.
How many teaspoons in a tablespoon?
1 US tablespoon = 3 teaspoons = 14.787 ml, and 1 US cup = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons. Note: cups measure volume, not weight β grams depend on the ingredient.
Are the conversion factors exact?
Yes. US kitchen measures derive exactly from the US gallon (3.785411784 L): 1 cup = gal/16, 1 tbsp = gal/256, 1 tsp = gal/768. The metric cup is 250 ml and the imperial cup is exactly 284.130625 ml. Displayed results are rounded for readability.
