Frequently Asked Questions

How many grams are in 1 cup of milk?

One US cup of milk weighs about 245 grams, one tablespoon about 15.31 grams, and one teaspoon about 5.1 grams. This page divides 250 grams by that cup weight.

Is 250g of milk the same as 250g of all-purpose flour?

No. 250g of milk is 1 cup, while 250g of all-purpose flour is 2 cups. Same weight on the scale, different volume in the cup, because the two have different densities.

How do I measure 250g of milk without a scale?

Use 1 cup + 1 teaspoon. Milk is slightly denser than water, so a cup weighs a little more than 240 g. Read a liquid measuring jug at eye level rather than from above.

Is it better to weigh milk or measure it in cups?

Weighing is more accurate, especially in baking, because it removes the variation in how the milk is packed into the cup. If you have no scale, use the cup figure above and keep your measuring method consistent across the whole recipe.
