Kitchen Conversion Chart: Free Printable Cooking Measurements Guide
Introduction
You’re mid-recipe, hands covered in flour, and suddenly you’re staring at “⅓ cup” when you only have a tablespoon measure. Or a recipe from the UK calls for grams and your scale is in ounces.

That’s exactly why a reliable kitchen conversion chart belongs on every cook’s wall — or bookmarked on their phone. This free, printable cooking measurement conversion chart covers everything from volume and weight to temperature, so you can convert cups to grams, tablespoons to teaspoons, Fahrenheit to Celsius, and back again — without breaking your workflow.
Whether you’re a weekend baker or a seasoned home chef, this free printable kitchen conversion chart eliminates the guesswork. Scroll through for the full chart, common conversion tables, and links to our interactive tools on Precise Calcs.
Why You Need a Kitchen Conversion Chart
A good kitchen measurement guide isn’t just for beginners — even experienced cooks reach for one regularly. Here’s why this kitchen cheat sheet is worth having:
How to Use This Kitchen Conversion Guide
Reading a conversion chart is straightforward once you understand the logic. Find the unit you have in the left column, then read across to the unit you need.
→ Find “1 Cup” in the volume table → Read across → 16 tablespoons.
Or use our interactive Tbsp to Cup Converter for instant results.
Step 1: Find your unit in the left column. Step 2: Read across to the right.
For weight, remember that ingredient density matters — 1 cup of flour weighs about 120 g, while 1 cup of sugar weighs around 200 g. Use our Cups to Grams Converter for ingredient-specific accuracy.
