Teaspoons

The teaspoon is a standard volume measurement in the US. Teaspoons can be written as tsp, although they can also be spelled as t, ts.

One teaspoon, for instance, might be expressed as one tsp, one t, or one tsp.

A teaspoon represents one-third of a tablespoon’s volume. Although a teaspoon is roughly equivalent to 4.9 milliliters, on nutrition labels, a teaspoon is equal to 5 milliliters.

Grams

In the metric system, the gram, often known as the gram, is a SI unit of weight. The abbreviation for grams is g; for instance, 1 gram may be written as 1 g.

A gram is roughly equal to one cubic centimeter of water and has a mass/weight of 1/1,000 of a kilogram.

What weight in grams is a teaspoon?

The weight of a teaspoon will vary depending on the substance’s density. The quantity of various wet and dry components in a teaspoon is shown in the table below.

Teaspoon measurements are converted to grams for commonly used ingredients.

Teaspoons	Water Weight	Milk Weight	Cooking Oil	All Purpose Flour	Granulated Sugar
1/8 tsp	0.616115 g	0.634599 g	0.542181 g	0.325925 g	0.520833 g
1/4 tsp	1.2322 g	1.2692 g	1.0844 g	0.65185 g	1.0417 g
1/3 tsp	1.643 g	1.6923 g	1.4458 g	0.869133 g	1.3889 g
1/2 tsp	2.4645 g	2.5384 g	2.1687 g	1.3037 g	2.0833 g
2/3 tsp	3.2859 g	3.3845 g	2.8916 g	1.7383 g	2.7778 g

1 tsp	4.9289 g	5.0768 g	4.3375 g	2.6074 g	4.1667 g

A level teaspoon of salt weighs around 6 grams, compared to roughly 4.2 grams for a level teaspoon of sugar. Salt weighs more because it is a denser component than sugar.

You must account for the ingredient’s density when converting an amount from grams to teaspoons for your recipe. Salt and sugar conversion tables are provided below.

Teaspoons and grams for sugar (granulated)

Teaspoons to grams	Teaspoons to grams
1 teaspoon = 4.2g	6 teaspoons = 25.2g
2 teaspoons = 8.4g	7 teaspoons = 29.3g
3 teaspoons = 12.6g	8 teaspoons = 33.5g
4 teaspoons = 16.7g	9 teaspoons = 37.7g
5 teaspoons = 20.9g	10 teaspoons = 41.8g
Rounded to 1 decimal place. US teaspoon (level, not heaped).

How many grams of sugar are there in a teaspoon?

A level teaspoon of granulated sugar has around 4.2 grams, but a heaping teaspoon contains about 7.5 grams.

grams of sugar = teaspoon × 4.2

Teaspoons and grams for salt

Teaspoons to grams	Teaspoons to grams
1 teaspoon = 5.9g	6 teaspoons = 35.4g
2 teaspoons = 11.8g	7 teaspoons = 41.4g
3 teaspoons = 17.8g	8 teaspoons = 47.4g
4 teaspoons = 23.7g	9 teaspoons = 53.3g
5 teaspoons = 29.6g	10 teaspoons = 59.2g
Rounded to 1 decimal place. US teaspoon (level, not heaped).

How many grams of salt are in 1 teaspoon?

Approximately 5.9 grams of salt are included in one level teaspoon.

grams of salt = teaspoon × 5.9

Please be advised that the reference tables and the converter’s list of ingredient possibilities are estimates, and your results will be close to those estimates. The ingredient densities were obtained from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and other data sources.

How to Convert Teaspoons to Grams

Consequently, the volume in grams is equal to the teaspoons times 4.928922, which is the density of the component or material.

For example, here’s how to convert five teaspoons to grams for an ingredient with a density of 0.7 g/mL.

5 tsp = 5 × 4.928922 × 0.7 = 17.251226 g

Both teaspoons and grams are frequently used to measure ingredients for meals.

Most chefs advise measuring dry materials for cooking applications by weight rather than volume to increase measurement accuracy. The density of dry ingredients can vary for various reasons, such as compaction.

The best way to ensure an accurate conversion is to use a scale. When a scale is unavailable, a calculator like the one above is a beautiful method to approximate the volume to weight.
