What is water?

Water weighs almost exactly 1 gram per milliliter, which makes it the easiest ingredient to convert.

Baking recipes measure water either by volume (cups and spoons) or by weight (grams and ounces). One US cup of water weighs about 236.6 grams, and one tablespoon about 14.8 grams. Weighing is more accurate, because how you fill a cup changes how much goes in.

For baking bread, weighing water is more accurate than measuring volume.
