How to Use This Calculator

1

Enter the volume in milliliters

Type the exact amount of liquid you want to convert to grams.

2

Choose the ingredient

Liquids have different densities, so select the one you're working with for accurate conversions.

3

Review the gram output

The calculator returns grams along with a cups reference so you can measure however you prefer.

Formula

grams = milliliters × gramsPerMilliliter

cups = milliliters ÷ 236.588

Example: 150 ml honey → 150 × 1.42 = 213 g.

Density reminder: Ingredients thicker than water weigh more per milliliter.

Full Description

Baking and beverage recipes often list liquids in grams to ensure accuracy. This ml to grams calculator bridges that gap for home cooks and professionals alike by applying realistic densities for common kitchen liquids.

Because each liquid behaves differently, choosing the correct ingredient yields precise results. Use the tool for converting between metric and imperial systems or when your measuring cups are already busy with other ingredients.

Best uses

  • Scaling pastry creams, custards, and ganache recipes.
  • Adjusting cocktail syrups or coffee concentrate batches.
  • Tracking macronutrients when meal prepping.
  • Replacing volume measurements in international cookbooks.

For ingredients not listed, weigh 100 ml to find its grams-per-ml density. Then plug that number into the formula for a custom conversion.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is milliliters to grams always a 1:1 conversion?

Only water and similar liquids follow a 1:1 ratio. Most oils, syrups, and dairy weigh more or less per milliliter.

How does temperature affect the conversion?

Liquids expand slightly with heat, reducing density. For precise baking, measure near room temperature.

Can I convert grams back to milliliters?

Yes. Divide grams by the grams-per-ml value for your ingredient to get milliliters.

Does this work for solids like flour?

Flour and sugar are better converted using volume-to-weight calculators because they trap air differently.
