Converter Calculator
1 Tablespoons = 18 Grams
Explanation
This page converts tablespoon measures into grams using a verified factor of 18 g per tablespoon for Baking Soda. It derives from the cups-to-grams factor by dividing by 16 (1 tablespoon = 1/16 US cup), preserving ingredient-specific bulk density while focusing on spoonful precision.
For Baking Soda, powder fineness and aeration (sifted vs unsifted) influence how the ingredient settles in a cup. Tablespoons capture small quantities that can swing a recipe, so translating them into grams keeps results repeatable. The calculator applies the reviewed factor so you can scale fractional spoon measures without losing consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why use tablespoons for grams instead of cups?
Tablespoons let you scale small additions with gram-level repeatability, which is useful for spices, leaveners, and concentrated ingredients.
Is this using the US tablespoon definition?
Yes. The factor derives from 1 tablespoon = 1/16 of a US cup (236.588 mL) before converting to grams.
How are gram targets derived?
They use verified grams-per-cup factors divided by 16, so ingredient-specific bulk density stays consistent.
