| Standard (1×) | 300g (10.58 oz) | 1 cup + 3 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp | 289.7 mL |
| 1.5× Batch | 450g (15.87 oz) | 1 ¾ cups + 1 tbsp + 1 ¼ tsp | 434.5 mL |
| Double Batch (2×) | 600g (21.16 oz) | 2 ⅓ cups + 1 tbsp + 2 ½ tsp | 579.4 mL |

Measuring 300g of Strained Greek Yogurt in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of strained greek yogurt weighs 245g when measured spooned & packed, 300 Grams (300g) translates to 1.22 US cups (1 cup + 3 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp). By contrast, using the 0% nonfat plain greek yogurt measure (245g/cup — an identical per-cup density), 300g occupies 1 cup + 3 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp (1.22 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 cup + 3 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp (19.59 tablespoons total) using spooned & packed technique. Spoon into a dry measuring cup, tapping gently on the counter to settle thick curds, and level with a flat spatula.
