Sources & how they compare
| Source | Reported value | Comparable source-cup value | Type | Method the source states | Adopted here | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| USDA FoodData Central — Yogurt, plain, whole milk (FDC 171284) FDC ID: 171284 | 245 g per 1 cup (the source's unit is “cup (8 fl oz)” and gives no ml; this site counts it as a 240 ml cup) | 245g | Direct | household cup; stirring not specified | Adopted | 2026-08-05 |
| King Arthur Baking — Ingredient Weight Chart | 227 g per 1 cup (volume not stated) | 227g | Direct | not stated (the chart lists weights only) | 2026-08-05 |
Measuring step this site recommends: stirred smooth, spooned into a liquid measuring cup, and leveled.
When sources disagree, follow your recipe: use its gram weights if it gives them, or measure the way its author did. The adopted value is one stated convention, not a correction of the other sources.
A comparable source-cup value only scales a half-cup or tablespoon serving to one source cup. When a source does not state the cup's exact volume, we do not present it as a fixed-milliliter normalization.
Measurement notes
- This conversion is for plain whole-milk yogurt, not strained Greek yogurt or a yogurt with fruit pieces.
- Stir separated whey back in before measuring, then fill and level without trapping large air pockets.
- Protein level, straining, and added stabilizers can change density between brands.
Common mistakes
- Assuming 1 cup of plain whole-milk yogurt equals 240g like water — it is actually 245g per US cup.
- Using a dry measuring cup instead of a liquid measuring cup.
