fucking cups, how much is it in grams? help me out my american anons

1/3 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice

1 cup = 250ml = 250g
water = 1g / ml

for other liquids it's guesswork, but juice should be pretty similar to water. shouldn't make a lick of difference though since you're not baking

Assume the density of fruit juice is roughly equal to that of water.
One cup is roughly 250 ml, therefore:
1/3 cup = 83g
1/4 cup = 63g

Wow, what recipe are you doing which really needs to be that precise? Usually recipes call for you to squeeze half a lemon or a whole lime or whatever and you adjust to taste.
>>
>>7378814
cups are a volume measure
grams are a weight measure

it would depend on the density of the item

>it would depend on the density of the item

Clearly. But fruit juice is mostly water and therefore the density of water would be close enough.

>>7378844
Because beginner cooks haven't yet learned to taste as they go and adjust accordingly. They want exact details spoon-fed to them. As they gain experience this will disappear. Same thing applies to cooking times: at first they will demand exact time and stove settings. Then after a while they'll learn to rely on their senses and observation instead.

What is specific gravity?

Just buy measuring cups for when you want to make American recipes. It's what I did.
