Measuring tips
Small amounts matter here. A level teaspoon is what recipes mean, never heaped.
The tables use a US cup of 236.6 ml. A metric cup (250 ml, used in Australia, Canada and New Zealand) of instant yeast weighs about 144 g. Switch the cup size in the converter above.
Weights are averages from published kitchen weight charts. Brand, humidity and how you fill the cup can change them by 5–10%, so for baking a scale is always more accurate.
