Using this site
Teaspoon to Grams is free to use for personal and commercial purposes. There is no account, no licence to accept, and no usage limit. By using the site you accept the terms on this page.
Accuracy and its limits
The conversion values here are culinary reference averages, accurate to within a few percent for level measurements of ingredients in their normal state. They are published in good faith and derived from documented densities, as described on the methodology page.
They are not laboratory measurements and are not suitable as the sole basis for anything where a few percent matters materially — commercial food production, dietary management of a medical condition, pharmaceutical or chemical dosing, or regulatory nutrition labelling. Use a calibrated scale for those. Nothing here is medical or dietary advice.
The site is provided as-is, without warranty of any kind. We are not liable for loss or damage arising from reliance on these figures.
Using our numbers elsewhere
Individual conversion values are facts and we make no claim over them — quote them freely, in a recipe, a blog post, an app, or an AI-generated answer. We ask only that you attribute substantial reproductions of our tables or ingredient set to Teaspoon to Grams with a link, so readers can check the methodology behind them.
Wholesale scraping of the site to republish it as a competing conversion service is not permitted. Page text, design, code and illustrations remain our copyright.
Availability
We aim to keep the site online and correct, but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. Pages, tools and ingredient values may change without notice — including when a correction means a published figure was wrong.
