How to convert milliliter to gram
This conversion crosses volume and weight, so it depends on the ingredient. We use a US cup = 236.5882 mL and all-purpose flour ≈ 125 g per US cup.
Formula:
grams = cups × 236.5882 × density, where density = 125 ÷ 236.5882 g/mL
Worked example: 1 milliliter = 0.5283441862 gram (Spoon-and-level; scooped can be 140–160 g).
Accuracy notes
- We use the US legal/customary cup = 236.5882 mL. Metric cups are 250 mL; UK/imperial cups are 284.131 mL — pick the matching unit in the dropdown when your recipe uses those standards.
- Flour: spoon-and-level (~125 g/cup for all-purpose) vs dip-and-scoop can reach 140–160 g. Pick the flour type that matches your recipe.
- Sugar: granulated, brown (packed), powdered, and caster sugar differ a lot — choose the exact ingredient in the selector.
- Sticky ingredients (honey, syrup, peanut butter): lightly grease your cup or use weight for best accuracy.
- All cooking conversions on this page are approximate — weigh for precision when baking matters.
