A Helping Hand

It's a pain in the butt that America and the UK use differing measurements for cooking. I figured this would therefore be of use.

1 teaspoon (teasp) = 5ml
1 dessertspoon = 10ml
3 teaspoons (teasp) = 1 tablespoon (tbsp) = 15ml = 1/2 fl.oz.
2 tablespoons (tbsp) = 30ml = 1 fl.oz.
100cc = 105ml = 3.5fl.oz.

Metric (ml/L)..........Imperial (fl.oz/pts) ...US Cups ....US Pints

30ml ........................1 fl.oz. .................. 1/8th
60ml ........................2 fl.oz ................... 1/4
90ml........................ 3 fl.oz.
120ml...................... 4 fl.oz ................... 1/2
150ml ......................5 fl.oz 1/4pt
180ml ......................6 fl.oz 3/4 pt
210ml ......................7 fl.oz.
240 ml .....................8 fl.oz.................... 1.
270ml ......................9fl.oz.
300ml .....................10fl.oz ......... 1 1/4

Same thing with a little more info thrown in.

DRY MEASURES - METRIC = IMPERIAL

15g = ½oz
30g = 1oz
60g = 2oz
90g = 3oz
125g = 4oz (¼lb)
155g = 5oz
185g = 6oz
220g = 7oz
250g = 80z (½lb)
280g = 9oz
315g = 10oz
345g = 11oz
375g = 12oz (¾lb)
410g = 13oz
440g = 14oz
470g = 15oz
500g = 16oz (1lb)
750g = 24oz (1½lb)
1kg = 32oz (2lb)

VOLUME EQUIVALENTS

1/4 teaspoon = 1 ml
1/2 teaspoon = 2 ml
1 teaspoon = 5 ml
1 tablespoon = 15 ml
1/4 cup = 65 ml
1 cup = 250 ml

-----------

LIQUID MEASURES - METRIC = IMPERIAL

30ml = 1 fluid oz
60ml = 2 fluid oz
100ml = 3 fluid oz
125ml = 4 fluid oz
150ml = 5 fluid oz (¼ pint)
190ml = 6 fluid oz
250ml = 8 fluid oz
300ml = 10 fluid oz (½ pint)
500ml = 16 fluid oz
600ml = 20 fluid oz (1pint)
1000ml (1 litre) = 1¾ pints

-------------------

EQUIVALENT MEASURES

3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon
1/2 tablespoon = 1-1/2 teaspoons
2 tablespoons = 1 fluid ounce
4 tablespoons = 1/4 cup
5-1/3 tablespoons = 1/3 cup
8 tablespoons = 1/2 cup
10-2/3 tablespoons = 2/3 cup
12 tablespoons = 3/4 cup
16 tablespoons = 1 cup
6 tablespoons = 8 fluid ounces
1/8 cup = 2 tablespoons
1/4 cup = 4 tablespoons
1/4 cup = 2 fluid ounces
1/3 cup = 5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon
1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons
1 cup = 16 tablespoons
1 cup = 8 fluid ounces
1 cup = 1/2 pint
2 cups = 1 pint
2 pints= 1 quart
4 quarts (liquid) = 1 gallon
1 litre = approximately 4 cups or 1 quart
