Metric Cup vs US Cup Converter

The two cup definitions differ. Choose the cup in the source recipe and convert the count without an ingredient-density assumption.

Metric cups 0.946 metric cups
Millilitres 236.6 ml

Boundary: This compares cup volumes only; it does not convert an ingredient to grams.

Formula

cups × source cup millilitres ÷ target cup millilitres

This compares cup volumes only; it does not convert an ingredient to grams.
