Cooking Conversion Charts & Tables

AuthorBarry LewisPosted onApril 13, 2014

Ok, so I’m aware I use a lot of different measurements in my videos and have never really
had a good reference point to give you to check what grams are compared to cups etc – I
hate cups sizes, they should be for bras anyway!
So here’s a quick summary of cooking conversions which I will add to over time –but feel
free to leave get in touch with any you want added and i’ll keep this updated.

Here’s a very simple oven conversion table: –

Gas         F              C           
1⁄4          225°       107°
1⁄2          250°       121°
1             275°       135°
2            300°       149°
3            325°        163°
4            350°        177°
5            375°        191°
6            400°        204°
7            425°        218°
8            450°        232°
9            475°        246°

Breaking down cup sizes to grams etc isn’t as straight forward as you would like and can be
pretty intensive. Here is a comparison of some popular ingredient measures that I have
been sent in that works a charm for me.
