I know that the official US-metric conversion rate for flour is 125 g per 1 cup. But when writing my hornets nest cake recipe, I discovered that this conversion rate is just not right.
I believe my eyes, so from now on I’m going to use 1 cup of all-purpose flour equals 150 g in all my recipes.
You can see the flour grams to cups (or cups to grams) conversion on the picture, and the conversion rate table looks like this:
Flour metric conversion table
| Cups | Amount, in grams (g) |
| 1/8 cup | 19 g |
| 1/4 cup | 38 g |
| 1/3 cup | 50 g |
| 3/8 cup | 56 g |
| 1/2 cup | 75 g |
| 5/8 cup | 94 g |
| 2/3 cup | 100 g |
| 3/4 cup | 113 g |
| 7/8 cup | 131 g |
| 1 cup | 150 g |
| 2 cups | 300 g |
| 4 cups | 600 g |
I’m sorry, but your measuring system isn’t right, but the official US conversion is.
I believe you’re measuring the weight of the flour and also the cup weight, which should be deducted, that gives me 150g, if you measure only the flour, is 125-126 g.
Thanks, I’ll double chek this!
