I want to easily convert metric cooking measurements to US like how many cups are in 500 grams of flour etc

That's going to be a little difficult -- cups are volume measure, grams are weight. It would convert from grams or kilograms to pounds with no problem. One of my cooking instructors had a saying "A pint's a pound the world around" - so admittedly that's a pretty loose standard but if it isn't something really finicky like pastry, that heuristic would probably work.

I don't use it for this type of conversion; however, it will convert standard measure into metric. The function is easy to do. Put your standard measure in, press the blue Conv button, and then on the number key - the corresponding metric equivalent you want. It has grams,k-grams, liter, c-liter, m-liter. It will convert both ways. It is a great little calculator for up or down sizing a recipe too.

Agreed, this is just right for my recipe which uses 3 cups of flour. Works very well.

I am sorry but I have never done an exact measurement. I just mix the batter and go.

I don't know how many cups but I'm sure you could use four or four and one half cups of flour. Pan is larger than most of the tube pans.

Yes, there is button which you can press it to know the measurement in kilos.

I have found many individual recipes online that allow you to input the LB size you want and it converts the recipe. You can also convert any recipe yourself. If a recipe is for 2-lbs....half everything.

It measures in ounces and also has a switch to change to metric. I LOVE this scale. I use it regularly when baking or preparing foods.

Where are the recipes for the flour that the bad suggests are on the web site?

Hi Anita, The most cups I have done (comfortably) is about 5 (flour) and most recipes call for 3-5 cups of flour. The pan does say it can go to 10-12 cups but I'm assuming when not using self-rising or all-purpose flour. With 5 cups, my cakes rise to the top (that's why I indicated "comfortably" because anything more you might have spillage).

I no longer have any to take measurements. You may be able to find info on wilton.com. I've also seen them sold in stores such as JoAnn's, Michael's etc.

I usually use 4 to 4-1/2 cups of flour, but I use a mixture of bread flour and whole grain spelt ... might even be able to use 5 cups of my flour mixture in this baker to get an even higher loaf.

1 teaspoon = 5g; don't confuse with tablespoon which is around ~14g. If you want, get those cooking utensils that measures baking powder and so forth in teaspoons, that way you know how much you're getting. Or you could just weigh it.

Yes, they have metric measurements. They are: 5ml (1 teaspoon), 15ml (1 Tablespoon), 30ml (1 OZ.) and 60ml (2 OZ.). The color part on the bottom is slightly rubberized so they don't slide around on the counter.

For gravy replace corn starch or flour measurements with double the amount of ultra gel

The machine comes with a measuring cup and the smallest amount I have cooked is three cups using the included measure. This was a mixture of barley rice and white rice

I have a recipe that uses 20 cups of whole wheat flour and it handles it fine

To select your desired measurement unit: The scale has four units of measurement: grams, kilograms, ounces, and pounds. You can switch the unit by pressing the UNIT button on the bottom, extreme front, of your scale.
