About this conversion

This Koverts page converts grams (g) to teaspoons (tsp) for cooking — using the standard US teaspoon volume; results are most accurate for water-like density (1 g ≈ 1 mL).

The gram (g) is the metric unit for mass. In cooking, small amounts of spices, salt, and baking powder are often given in grams on metric recipes.

The teaspoon (tsp) is a common US kitchen volume measure. One US teaspoon is 4.92892 mL by definition; this tool relates mass to that volume using the site’s cooking conversion model.

Typical uses

  • Scaling spice and salt in US cookbooks
  • Checking yeast and baking powder amounts
  • Comparing metric baking charts to tsp measures
  • Teaching kitchen unit literacy
Formulatsp = g × 0.202884

Common reference values

  • 1 g = 0.202884 tsp
  • 10 g = 2.028842 tsp
  • 100 g = 20.28842 tsp

Tip: For water, 1 g ≈ 1 mL, so grams and milliliters align closely. For flour or sugar, weight is more reliable than volume — use a scale when precision matters.

Did you know? US teaspoons and tablespoons are standardized volumes — but “heaping” spoons in old recipes are not, which is why weight (grams) wins for repeatability.

Educational reference - always verify critical measurements (medical, engineering, legal) with primary sources.

// Frequently Asked Questions

Why doesn’t my gram-to-tsp match the package?
Packaging often assumes a specific ingredient density (e.g. salt vs flour). This converter uses the site’s fixed cooking factors — for professional baking, prefer grams on a scale.
Is a US teaspoon the same as UK or metric teaspoons?
They are close but not always identical. Koverts uses the US customary teaspoon definition (4.92892 mL) for this cooking tool.
How many grams are in one teaspoon of water?
For pure water at maximum density (~4 °C), 1 US teaspoon (4.92892 mL) weighs about 4.93 grams because water is roughly 1 g/mL. For salt, flour, or sugar, grams per teaspoon depend on density — use a scale for accuracy.
What is 1 g in tsp?
1 g = 0.202884 tsp.
How is the conversion calculated?
tsp = g × 0.202884.
