🥄 Grams → Teaspoons Converter
Express ingredient weight as kitchen-friendly spoon measures.
Perfect for recipe conversions, nutrition planning, and DIY projects where you weigh ingredients but measure with spoons.
Pure water at ~4°C.
Teaspoons: 10.14 tsp
Tablespoons: 3.38 tbsp
Milliliters: 50 mL
How to Use This Calculator
Enter grams
Start with the ingredient mass measured on a scale.
Select density
Choose the material (water, oil, etc.) or provide its density in g/cc.
Read spoon measures
Teaspoons, tablespoons, and milliliters show how to portion the ingredient by volume.
Formula
Volume (cc) = Mass (g) ÷ Density (g/cc)
Teaspoons = Volume ÷ 4.92892
Tablespoons = Volume ÷ 14.7868
Milliliters = Volume (cc)
Use the formula breakdown to confirm the calculation logic or perform the conversion manually if needed.
Full Description
Converting grams to teaspoons removes guesswork when sharing recipes between weight- and volume-based kitchens. By accounting for density, the converter adapts to ingredients with different textures and moisture content.
Presets cover common liquids, while the custom density field lets you dial in accuracy for syrups, oils, or powdered solids.
Tablespoon and milliliter outputs provide additional reference points for flexible measuring tools.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need density for dry ingredients?
A teaspoon of sugar weighs more than a teaspoon of flour. Density captures that difference so the conversion stays accurate.
Can I use metric spoon sizes?
This tool uses U.S. culinary teaspoons and tablespoons. Adjust the conversion factors for metric spoons if necessary.
Does it handle negative grams?
Negative masses are not physical, so negative inputs are marked invalid.
Can I convert teaspoons back to grams?
Yes. Multiply teaspoons by 4.92892 to get milliliters, then multiply by density to obtain grams.
