| Standard (1×) | 113.4g (4 oz) | ¾ cup + 2 ¼ tsp | 188.9 mL |
| 1.5× Batch | 170.1g (6 oz) | 1 cup + 3 tbsp + ½ tsp | 283.4 mL |
| Double Batch (2×) | 226.8g (8 oz) | 1 ½ cups + 1 tbsp + 1 ¾ tsp | 377.9 mL |

Measuring 4 oz of Whole Raw Almonds in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of whole raw almonds weighs 142g when measured dip and sweep, 4 Ounces (113.4g) translates to 0.80 US cups (¾ cup + 2 ¼ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure ¾ cup + 2 ¼ tsp (12.78 tablespoons total) using dip and sweep technique. Scoop almonds directly into a dry measuring cup and level flush with the top. Because whole almonds leave irregular air voids between nuts, shaking the cup settles them into a tighter pack, shifting weight from 142g up to 155g.
