New: a kitchen section and four guides to kitchen measurements
A new kitchen conversions page and four guides: cups to dl, Fahrenheit to Celsius, spoon measures and grams per decilitre.
Konvertera.nu has a new section for the kitchen. Kitchen collects what you need to convert the measurements in a recipe, and four new guides each cover one topic. Both are under Guides in the menu.
Kitchen
The page has a converter for cups, decilitres, millilitres, tablespoons, teaspoons and the Swedish spice measure. Below it are tables for Swedish kitchen measures, US measures, oven temperatures and what a decilitre weighs.
Four guides
Cups to dl and other US recipe measurements in metric
Cups, tablespoons, sticks and ounces converted to decilitres and grams, with a table for every fraction of a cup and what a cup weighs.
Oven temperatures: Fahrenheit to Celsius, gas marks and oven symbols
Fahrenheit to Celsius for the oven, British gas marks, the symbols on an oven dial, and what changes with a fan oven.
Tablespoon to ml and teaspoon to ml, by country
Tablespoons and teaspoons in millilitres across countries, the Swedish msk, tsk and krm, and what a spoonful weighs.
How much does 1 dl weigh? Grams to dl for flour, sugar and butter
Weight per decilitre for flour, sugar, butter, grains and dairy, from the Swedish Food Agency, Dansukker and Arla. With tables for grams to dl.
A US cup is 2.37 dl. 350 °F is 177 °C, so set the oven to 175 °C. A Swedish tablespoon is 15 ml and an Australian one 20 ml. A decilitre of wheat flour weighs about 56 grams.
Where the numbers come from
The conversions use the same calculations as the site’s converters. The weights per decilitre come from the Swedish Food Agency’s measurements and from manufacturers’ own figures, and each guide names its source. Where we have no reliable source, we left the ingredient out rather than guess.
Every table can be printed, for example to put on the fridge.
