About Milliliters & Cups
Milliliters are precise metric measurements, while cups vary by region. Converting mL to cups helps adapt precise measurements to common cooking tools and recipe formats.
Common Uses
Perfect for converting scientific recipes to kitchen measurements, adapting international recipes, scaling beverage recipes, and converting nutrition information to practical portions.
Conversion Tips
Quick estimate: 250 mL ≈ 1 cup (metric), 240 mL ≈ 1 US cup. For baking precision, always specify cup type. Use measuring cups for accuracy rather than drinking cups.
