In short
One gram of all-purpose flour is 1.892705892 millilitre. Going the other way, one millilitre is 0.5283441047 gram. That works out at 2 gram = 3.785411784 millilitre and 4 = 7.570823568. The figure comes from all-purpose flour weighing 125 g per US cup — a generic cups-to-grams converter assumes water and will give you the wrong answer here, because volume to weight depends entirely on what is in the cup.

About the Grams to Millilitres — All-Purpose Flour
How you fill the cup matters more here than for anything else in the kitchen. Dipping the cup straight into the bag compacts the flour and can add 20% — around 25 g per cup — which is the difference between a tender cake and a dry one. The figure used here is the spooned-and-levelled weight: fluff the flour, spoon it in, level with a knife. US recipes and UK recipes disagree: many British sources use 150 g per cup for plain flour because they assume a scooped cup. The figure this page works from is 125 g per US cup, the spooned-and-levelled weight recorded by King Arthur Baking and the USDA food database. Converting gram to millilitre for all-purpose flour, the amounts that come up most often are: 25 gram = 47.3 millilitre; 50 gram = 94.6 millilitre; 75 gram = 142 millilitre; 100 gram = 189 millilitre; 150 gram = 284 millilitre; 200 gram = 379 millilitre; 250 gram = 473 millilitre; 500 gram = 946 millilitre; 1000 gram = 1893 millilitre.
What people use it for
- Following a US recipe with a kitchen scale instead of cup measures.
- Scaling a recipe up or down without compounding measuring error.
- Converting a European recipe written in grams into cups.

The maths behind it
This tool uses millilitre = gram × 1.892705892, derived from all-purpose flour weighing 125 g per US cup. Every intermediate value is shown on screen, so the result can be checked by hand.
How you fill the cup matters more here than for anything else in the kitchen. Dipping the cup straight into the bag compacts the flour and can add 20% — around 25 g per cup — which is the difference between a tender cake and a dry one. The figure used here is the spooned-and-levelled weight: fluff the flour, spoon it in, level with a knife.
Where this tool stops
Volume-to-weight conversion is inherently approximate. Humidity, brand, how finely something is milled and how long it has sat in the cupboard all shift the figure by a few per cent.
Frequently asked questions
Why do different websites give different grams per cup of flour?
Because they measured differently. Spooned and levelled gives about 125 g; scooped from the bag gives 145–150 g; sifted first gives closer to 115 g. None is wrong, but a recipe rarely says which one it used — which is the whole argument for weighing flour instead.
Why does a cup of all-purpose flour not weigh the same as a cup of water?
Because a cup measures volume and a scale measures weight, and the two only agree for water. All-purpose flour has its own density — 125 g per US cup — so any generic volume converter gives the wrong answer here.
How much does the way I fill the cup matter?
Enormously, and this is the ingredient where it matters most. Scooping straight from the bag compacts the flour and can add 20% — about 25 g on a 125 g cup — which is the difference between a tender crumb and a dry one. The figure here is spooned and levelled: fluff it, spoon it in, level with a knife. A scale removes the question entirely.
Is a US cup the same as a UK or metric cup?
No. A US cup is 236.6 ml, a metric cup is 250 ml and an old UK cup is 284 ml. These pages use the US cup, because that is what US recipes mean.
Are there any usage caps on the Grams to Millilitres — All-Purpose Flour?
No charge and no sign-up. There is no free tier to run out of because there is no paid tier — inputtesthub.com is funded by advertising rather than by metering the tool.
Does anything I enter leave my computer?
No. The Grams to Millilitres — All-Purpose Flour runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Because the work happens locally, the tool also keeps working if your connection drops, and closing the tab is all it takes to discard everything.
Can I check the maths myself?
It uses millilitre = gram × 1.892705892, derived from all-purpose flour weighing 125 g per US cup. The full working is printed under the result, so you can follow every step rather than trusting a black box.
Can you show an example?
Enter 2 gram of all-purpose flour and the Grams to Millilitres — All-Purpose Flour returns 3.785411784 millilitre.
What is the Grams to Millilitres — All-Purpose Flour used for?
In practice it gets used for three things: following a US recipe with a kitchen scale instead of cup measures. Scaling a recipe up or down without compounding measuring error. Converting a European recipe written in grams into cups. It is built for exactly those cases rather than being a general-purpose tool with this bolted on.
What are the limits of the Grams to Millilitres — All-Purpose Flour?
Volume-to-weight conversion is inherently approximate. Humidity, brand, how finely something is milled and how long it has sat in the cupboard all shift the figure by a few per cent. Knowing where a tool stops being trustworthy matters more than the cases where it works.
What are the reference figures here?
1 US cup of all-purpose flour is 125 g. 1 Gram is 1.892705892 Millilitre. 1 Millilitre is 0.5283441047 Gram. These are printed on the page itself, so you do not have to take them on trust.
Can I rely on this for exact work?
The calculation runs in double precision and the result is shown to ten significant figures, so converting a value and converting it back returns the original. What is displayed is rounded for readability; what is copied is not.
