Cups to grams / Dried milk powder

How many grams is 1 tablespoon of dried milk powder?

1 tablespoon of dried milk powder (dry whole milk) weighs

8g

That's 0.3oz. An Australian 20ml tablespoon holds 11g.

A level US or UK tablespoon (15ml). USDA doesn't measure a tablespoon of this, so this is a sixteenth of its cup weight.

Other amounts of dried milk powder

Where these numbers come from

USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy, food 01212: “Milk, dry, whole, without added vitamin D”. USDA lists these household measures for it:

  • 1 cup = 128g
  • 0.25 cup = 32g

Fractions of a cup are the cup weight scaled down. The tablespoon figure is the cup weight divided by 16, since USDA doesn't list a tablespoon for this ingredient. The teaspoon is a third of the tablespoon. Metric-cup figures assume a 250ml cup, and Australian tablespoons hold 20ml. Weights under 10g are rounded to 0.1g, everything else to the nearest gram.
