Why Do I Need A Measurement Conversion Chart?

When cooking, it’s easy to throw a little bit of this or that  without measuring. However, baking is an exact science. While it is a fun hobby and passion for many (myself included!) accurate measurements ensure that your baked goods will rise, have the correct texture or perfect crumb and end over overly salty!

An accessible cooking measurement converter makes baking smooth and effortless – no matter how much or little you are making!

You can get the free printable kitchen conversion chart below under my tips and tricks!

Liquid Conversion Versus Dry Conversion

measuring cup for liquid conversion

To measure accurately, use the correct measuring cups designed to measure liquid ingredients or solid ingredients. Using the correct measuring cup for dry ingredients or liquid ingredients matters!

Liquid measuring cups measure volume where 1 cup of a liquid ingredient would be equal to 8 fluid ounces.

The same does not hold true for dry ingredients where 1 cup of a dry ingredient does not always equal to 8 ounces in weight. 1 cup of flour will weigh slightly more than 1 cup of oats. Solid measuring cups also have a flat top where ingredients should be leveled off and liquid measuring cups have a handle and spout for pouring.

My Favorite Kitchen Measuring Cups and Spoons

  1. Hi Julie,
    I love your site! How do I print the chart?
    Also, I weigh my dry ingredients, it’s the only way to know that 1 cup of flour is actually 1 cup of flour. Do you have a chart for weighing ingredients? I’ve looked and there are various between the ones online. Wondered if you would consider putting together a list and video? The benefits of weighing is you can weigh your dry ingredients all together just resetting your scale with the push of a button. I think it would be great if you did a video or put something together. I appreciate all of the information you provide to us! Thanks, Sue
