How do I convert cups and fractions of teaspoons into grams?

Baking & Technique class-q-and-abakery-business

How can baking quantities written in cups, quarter teaspoons or eighth teaspoons be measured in grams? Does the conversion depend on the ingredient, and what should a baker do when a recipe gives only a small volume measurement rather than a tested weight?

The course recommends weighing ingredients rather than relying on cups. Even a cup of flour varies with how it is filled, so there is no single grams-per-cup value that applies to every ingredient.

For a quarter or an eighth of a teaspoon, first identify the ingredient and the recipe’s intended measurement. Don’t use one ingredient’s conversion for another.
