Recipe measurements vary by country. A US cup is about 236.6 mL, while the metric cup used in Australia, India and elsewhere is 250 mL. A US tablespoon is about 14.8 mL (Australian tablespoons are 20 mL), and a teaspoon is about 4.93 mL. Three teaspoons make a tablespoon, and 16 tablespoons make a US cup. This converter handles these kitchen volumes so you can follow an American recipe with metric measuring jugs. Remember that cups measure volume, not weight: a cup of flour weighs around 120 to 130 g while a cup of sugar is about 200 g, so for baking precision a scale is best.
