Formula

result = value × (from.toBase ÷ to.toBase) with millilitre as base

Kitchen volumes convert through millilitres. US teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, and fluid ounces use FDA/US customary definitions — not UK imperial pints or Australian metric cups (250 ml).

Worked example

1 US cup = 236.588 ml — the volume behind most American recipe cup measures, slightly shy of the 250 ml metric cup common in Australia and New Zealand.

Where this can give the wrong answer

  • UK fluid ounces and US fluid ounces differ — this tool uses US fl oz (29.5735 ml).
  • Dry vs liquid cups aren't distinguished; US cup is a volume unit (236.588 ml), not weight.
  • Tablespoon sizes vary internationally (15 ml AU/NZ/UK vs ~14.79 ml US) — factors here are US customary.

FAQ

The general volume tool includes litres and gallons; this one focuses on recipe units (tsp, tbsp, cup) mapped to millilitres for scaling ingredient lists.
