Conversion FAQs
How accurate is the 236.588 ml per cup measurement?
This measurement is based on the US customary cup, which is standardized at exactly 236.588 ml. It provides high accuracy for recipes and measurements in the United States, but variations may occur in other countries using different cup sizes.
Can I convert other cup sizes to ml using this method?
Yes, the same formula applies; multiply the number of cups by 236.588. For example, if a recipe calls for 1.5 cups, multiplying 1.5 by 236.588 gives the ml equivalent, ensuring precise conversions regardless of the cup size involved.
What do I do if I only have metric measurements but need to convert to cups?
To convert milliliters to cups, divide the ml amount by 236.588. For example, 500 ml divided by 236.588 equals approximately 2.11 cups. This helps when adjusting recipes between metric and US customary measurement systems.
Is the conversion different for dry ingredients?
Yes, dry ingredients can vary in volume depending on their density, so this conversion is primarily accurate for liquids. For dry ingredients, weight measurements are often more precise, and conversions may require specific ingredient density data.
Can I use this conversion for international recipes?
It depends. The 236.588 ml per cup is specific to the US customary cup. Other countries may use different cup sizes, such as the UK imperial cup (about 284 ml), so adjust the conversion factor accordingly for international recipes.
