Recipe volumes in cups, fuel in gallons, lab measurements in milliliters — volume units vary widely by country and context, and cooking especially depends on getting these conversions right.
This tool converts between eight common volume units — milliliters, liters, cubic meters, US gallons, quarts, pints, cups, and fluid ounces.
How it works
Enter a value, choose the unit you're converting from and the unit you want to convert to. The tool handles any combination of the eight supported units.

Examples
Converting a recipe measurement
1 US cup converts to 240 milliliters — handy when following a recipe using a different measurement system.
Who should use it
- Converting recipe measurements between metric and US customary units.
- Converting fuel or liquid volumes between liters and gallons.
Industry applications
- Cooking and recipe development
- Automotive and fuel measurement
Advantages
- Supports eight common cooking and general-purpose volume units.
- Handles any combination of the supported units.
Limitations
- Uses US customary units only, not UK imperial equivalents.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using US volume units interchangeably with UK imperial units of the same name, which differ in actual size.
Best practices
- Check whether a recipe or spec uses US or imperial units before converting, since the same unit name can mean a different volume.
Tips
- For baking precision, weighing dry ingredients in grams is generally more accurate than converting cup measurements.
