Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to select an ingredient?
Different ingredients have different densities, so the same volume can weigh different amounts. Selecting the ingredient ensures accurate weight-to-volume conversions.
Which ingredients are supported for density-based conversion?
Currently supported ingredients include water, milk, flour, sugar, and honey. These cover common cooking and baking needs with their specific density values.
Can I convert between any weight and volume units?
Yes, you can convert between all supported units (grams, kilograms, ounces, pounds for weight; milliliters, liters, teaspoons, tablespoons, cups for volume) when density is available.
How accurate are the conversions?
Conversions are calculated using standard conversion factors and ingredient densities. Results are shown to three decimal places for precision, but actual cooking applications may vary based on measurement methods.
What if my ingredient isn't listed?
For ingredients not listed, you can use water as a baseline approximation, but results will be less accurate. Consider using water density (1g/ml) for rough estimates or look up specific ingredient density values.
