Batch Scaling Around 25g Water
| Batch Scale | Weight (g / oz) | US Cups & Spoons | Metric (mL) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half Batch (0.5×) | 12.5g (0.44 oz) | 2 ½ tsp | 12.5 mL |
| Standard (1×) | 25g (0.88 oz) | 1 tbsp + 2 tsp | 25 mL |
| 1.5× Batch | 37.5g (1.32 oz) | 2 tbsp + 1 ½ tsp | 37.4 mL |
| Double Batch (2×) | 50g (1.76 oz) | 3 tbsp + 1 ¼ tsp | 49.9 mL |
| Triple Batch (3×) | 75g (2.65 oz) | ¼ cup + 1 tbsp + ¼ tsp | 74.9 mL |
Measuring 25g of Water in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of water weighs 237g when measured poured liquid, 25 Grams (25g) translates to 0.11 US cups (1 tbsp + 2 tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 tbsp + 2 tsp (1.69 tablespoons total) using poured liquid technique. Place a liquid measuring cup on a flat countertop and read the water meniscus at eye level. Standard water has a pure density of 1.00 g/mL, making 1 US cup exactly 237 grams (or 236.6g).
Source note: NIST Standard Reference Data; 1 US customary cup = 236.588 mL = 236.6 g pure water at 20°C
