Conversions

Although I normally use US measurements only on my blog, you can look up almost any measurement equivalent you need by using the built-in converter functionality within Google’s search. For example, suppose you would like to convert 1 cup to its metric equivalent. Simply type in the following:

1 cup in ml

and hit search.  You’ll instantly see the resulting equivalent: 2 US cups = 473.176473 ml.

For a list of common conversions, see below:
