How This Conversion Works
Grams = cups × 240 (the standard weight of 1 cup of whole milk, measured by volume). Cups = grams ÷ 240.
Worked example
A recipe calls for 100g of milk.
100 ÷ 240 = 0.4167 cups
Frequently Asked Questions
How many grams is a cup of milk?
1 cup of whole milk, measured by volume is 240 grams.
What should I know about measuring milk?
This conversion is for whole milk, measured by volume, and milk's density is close enough to water that measuring it by volume (in a liquid measuring cup) or by weight gives nearly the same result — this conversion is mainly useful when a recipe gives milk in grams instead.
Should I use a kitchen scale instead of cups?
For baking specifically, yes if precision matters — weight doesn't vary with how tightly an ingredient is packed, so it's more consistent than volume measurement. This converter helps translate a cup-based recipe to weight, or a weight-based recipe back to cups.
