Kitchen Calculators

Kitchen measures such as cups and spoons are the foundation of accurate cooking. A recipe scaling tool adjusts ingredient proportions for any number of servings, while a baking temperature chart helps you set the oven correctly. Converters handle volume and weight units across different culinary traditions, so every recipe turns out exactly as intended. Pick a calculator below.

Kitchen converters and calculators

Precision in the kitchen starts with understanding measurements. A standard Polish cup holds 250 ml, a tablespoon is 15 ml and a teaspoon is 5 ml. Recipes from other countries use different conventions: the US cup is 240 ml, the UK tablespoon is 17.7 ml. A kitchen unit converter eliminates confusion by automatically translating cups to grams, tablespoons to millilitres and ounces to grams. Recipe scaling is another everyday challenge. If the original recipe serves four but you are cooking for twelve, every ingredient must be multiplied by the right factor. A recipe calculator performs all conversions simultaneously, covering every ingredient in one step and greatly reducing the chance of error. Baking temperature is critical to the final result. A sponge cake requires a different oven temperature than sourdough bread or shortbread cookies. Most European ovens display Celsius, but English-language recipes often list Fahrenheit. The conversion formula is °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32 — a calculator applies it instantly. Typical ranges are 150–180°C for cakes, 200–220°C for bread and pizza. Ingredient proportions determine the texture and flavour of a dish. Too little fat makes a cake dry; too much salt can ruin an entire recipe. Proportion calculators keep the correct ratios intact after scaling, ensuring results stay consistent. A calorie calculator goes further, computing the total energy value of a dish from the weight of each ingredient — useful for weight management and balanced meal planning alike.

Frequently asked questions about cooking

How many ml in 1 cup?

1 Polish kitchen cup = 250 ml. In English recipes, 1 cup = 240 ml.

How many ml in 1 tablespoon?

1 tablespoon = 15 ml; 1 teaspoon = 5 ml.

How many grams in a cup of flour?

1 cup of plain flour ≈ 130–140 g (depends on packing).

Multiply each ingredient by (desired servings / base servings).

100 g raw white rice ≈ 360 kcal; cooked ≈ 130 kcal.

GI measures how fast a food raises blood glucose. Low GI < 55, high GI > 70.

°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. E.g. 180°C = 356°F.

1 tablespoon of butter (15 ml) ≈ 14 g.

Calories = sum (ingredient weight × kcal/100g) / 100. The calculator does this automatically.

1 kcal = 4.184 kJ. EU food labels show energy in both units.
