- Flour Cups to GramsA US cup of spooned all-purpose flour is about 120 g. Scoop-and-level from the bag can hit 140 g and dry out a cake. Weigh if the crumb matters. Bread flour is denser; cake flour is lighter.
- Brown Sugar Cups to GramsPacked light or dark brown sugar is about 220 g per US cup. “Packed” means you pressed it. A loose scoop can miss 30 g and flatten cookies. Light and dark weigh nearly the same; molasses is the flavor, not the scale.
- Cocoa Powder Cups to GramsUnsweetened cocoa powder is fluffy. A US cup is about 85 g sifted/spooned. Dutch-process vs natural does not change the gram target as much as how hard you tap the cup.
- Cups to MillilitersUS customary cup is 240 mL in nutrition labels and 236.6 mL in the true fluid-cup (8 fl oz). This page uses the 8 fl oz cup (236.6 mL). A “metric cup” in Australia is 250 mL. If the cake falls, check which cup the author owned.
- Fluid Ounces to Cups8 US fl oz make a cup. A 12 oz can is 1½ cups. UK fluid ounces are 28.4 mL, not 29.6 — close until you scale a catering recipe.
- Grains to MilligramsAmmunition, arrows, and old pharmacy weights still use grains. One grain is 64.79891 mg. A “115 gr” 9 mm bullet is 7.45 g. This is not a grain of rice.

A 5K is 5,000 meters, not 5 kilometers on the nose if your watch is sloppy. Divide meters by 1,000. Track races, building plans, and “how far was that hike” all live in this split.
Feet to Meters
Unit Converters
US height, ceiling height, and lumber still arrive in feet. Meter plans do not. One foot is exactly 0.3048 m — not “about a third.” Use this when a listing says 10 ft ceilings and the architect works in meters.
Inches to Centimeters
Unit Converters
Monitor diagonals, waist measurements, and photo prints still come in inches. Clothing charts in Europe come in cm. Multiply inches by 2.54. That factor is exact, not a kitchen guess.
