Explanation

The converter converts quinoa from grams into cups. In this converter, 100 grams of quinoa is about 0.56 US cup, 150 grams is about 0.85 cup, and 177 grams is about 1 cup.

Quinoa grain size and settling can change cup volume, so this page keeps one explicit quinoa cup basis.

Quinoa uses a recorded reference of 177 grams per US cup in this dataset. Confidence: high. Source basis: King Arthur Ingredient Weight Chart (Quinoa, whole: 1 cup = 177g)

Evidence status: reference-recorded. The source note is recorded; this does not certify every preparation or measurement condition. Particle size, aeration, settling, and whether the cup is scooped or spoon-filled can materially change the mass held by the same volume.
