Formula
To convert teaspoons Water (teaspoons) to grams Water (grams): Multiply teaspoons by 1 (density of Water)
About teaspoons Water (teaspoons)
Teaspoons of Water. Measured by US teaspoon (= 5 mL = 1/3 US tablespoon = 1/48 US cup per FDA 21 CFR 101.9). The teaspoon is the standard US measure for small dry ingredients (salt, sugar, baking powder, spices) + small liquid amounts (vanilla extract, lemon juice). Common multiples: 1/4 tsp (1.25 mL), 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL), 1 tsp (5 mL). 'Heaping teaspoon' is informally ~50% more than level (can vary widely). Most US measuring-spoon sets include 1/4, 1/2, 1, and 1 tablespoon (= 3 tsp) increments. Water (H₂O) is the universal solvent + the foundation of nearly all cooking — providing the medium for boiling, steaming, poaching, brining, dough hydration, and braising. Density exactly 1.000 g/mL at 4°C per the historical 1795 metric system definition (the original kilogram was defined as the mass of 1 dm³ of water at 4°C; the modern kg has been redefined since 2019 via the Planck constant). At typical room temperature 20°C, water density is 0.998 g/mL (a 0.2% deviation usually ignored in cooking measurements). Water boils at 100°C at sea level (1 atm pressure) and at lower temperatures at altitude per the Clausius-Clapeyron equation — Denver Colorado (1,600 m elevation) sees water boil at 95°C, requiring longer cook times for pasta + vegetables. Water hardness (Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺ content) affects bread crust + tea + coffee extraction. Distilled water (0 ppm TDS) is preferred for sourdough starter, espresso machines, + canning. Density: 1.000 g/mL (used to convert volume measurements to mass).
About grams Water (grams)
Grams of Water. Measured by mass in grams (g) — the metric base mass unit used in scientific + international + professional baking contexts. Mass measurement is more accurate than volume measurement because it eliminates packing-density variation (1 cup of flour can vary 10-20% by mass depending on aerated-vs-packed scoop technique). Most modern baking + pastry recipes from professional pastry chefs (Sébastien Bruno, Pierre Hermé, Stella Parks 'BraveTart', Cook's Illustrated) specify gram measurements. A small digital kitchen scale (~$15-30) provides 1-g resolution.
