Batch Scaling Around 300g Granulated White Sugar
| Batch Scale | Weight (g / oz) | US Cups & Spoons | Metric (mL) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half Batch (0.5×) | 150g (5.29 oz) | ¾ cup | 177.4 mL |
| Standard (1×) | 300g (10.58 oz) | 1 ½ cups | 354.9 mL |
| 1.5× Batch | 450g (15.87 oz) | 2 ¼ cups | 532.3 mL |
| Double Batch (2×) | 600g (21.16 oz) | 3 cups | 709.8 mL |
| Triple Batch (3×) | 900g (31.75 oz) | 4 ½ cups | 1064.6 mL |
Measuring 300g of Granulated White Sugar in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of granulated white sugar weighs 200g when measured poured or spooned & leveled, 300 Grams (300g) translates to 1.50 US cups (1 ½ cups). By contrast, using the dip scooped measure (210g/cup — a 10g per-cup shift), 300g occupies 1 ⅓ cups + 1 tbsp + 1 ½ tsp (1.43 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ½ cups (24 tablespoons total) using poured or spooned & leveled technique. Pour sugar directly into the measuring cup and level with a flat blade. Dry granulated sucrose crystals flow freely without trapping excessive air.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many cups is 300 grams of granulated white sugar? ▾
300 grams of granulated white sugar (poured or spooned & leveled, 200g per US cup) equals 1 ½ cups (1.50 US Customary Cups, 1.42 Metric 250 mL cups, or 24 tablespoons).
Why does granulated sugar weigh exactly 200 grams per cup? ▾
Pure sucrose crystals pack into a uniform bulk density of approximately 0.85 g/cm³, arriving reliably at 200g per US cup.
Does granulated sugar absorb moisture from the air? ▾
Yes, prolonged humidity causes surface dissolution and clumping; store in a dry, sealed airtight canister.
