I wish I had found one of these charts when I started cooking years ago, especially after I bought my first Martha Stewart’s cookbooks – Pies & Tarts was my very first – and had to figure out cups and teaspoons into grams, and internet was not what it is today, especially in Italy.
In any case, you can find specific conversions & charts via google, but in the last few years I have been using an inexpensive but precise Convert! App for my iPhone.
Also, for liquids, there are those graduated measuring cups that show both ml and liquid oz./cups. For solids, there are inexpensive precision scales that have a button to switch between gr/kg & oz/lbs.
TEMPERATURE CONVERSIONS
275°F = 140°C
300°F = 150°C
325°F = 165°C
350ºF = 180ºC
375ºF = 190ºC
400ºF = 200ºC
425ºF = 220ºC
450ºF = 230ºC
475ºF = 240ºC
VOLUME/LIQUID EQUIVALENTS
1 cup = 8 fl. oz = 237 ml.
3/4 cup = 6 fl. oz. = 177 ml.
2/3 cup = 5 fl. oz. = 158 ml.
1/2 cup = 4 fl. oz. = 118 ml.
1/3 cup = 3 fl. oz. = 79 ml.
1/4 cup = 2 fl. oz. = 59 ml.
1/8 cup = 1 fl. oz. = 30 ml. = 2 TBSP = 6 TSP
1/16 cup = 0.5 fl. oz. = 15 ml. = 1 TBSP = 3 TSP
