How to calculate

Converts liters to kilograms and back for water, milk, flour, sugar, and other ingredients, from what each one weighs per liter.

Example with the default inputs (Liters (L) 80, Ingredient Water at 4 °C, 0.999975 kg per L): 80 L = 79.998 kg (Water at 4 °C, 0.999975 kg per L).

Formula: kg = liters × 0.999975, where kilograms per liter depends on the ingredient (water at 4 °C: 0.999975 kg)

  • Grams per cup are USDA FoodData Central (SR Legacy) portion weights for one level US cup (8 US fluid ounces): all-purpose flour 125 g (FDC 168894), granulated sugar 200 g (FDC 169655), brown sugar, packed 220 g (FDC 168833), powdered sugar, unsifted 120 g (FDC 169656), whole milk 244 g (FDC 171265), butter 227 g (FDC 173410), olive oil 216 g (FDC 171413), honey 339 g (FDC 169640), white rice, uncooked 185 g (FDC 169756).
  • Water is pure water: 0.999975 kg per liter at 4 °C and 0.998207 kg per liter at 20 °C, from the Tanaka et al. (2001) density formula.
  • Other ingredients use their USDA cup weight: kilograms per liter = grams per cup ÷ 236.5882365.
  • Exact on the typed decimals: at most 6 decimal places (6 significant digits below 0.0001), rounded half up; an answer of 1 billion or more shows at most 15 significant digits.
