Grams to Cups: Farro
If your recipe is written in cups but your scale reads grams — or the other way round — this page solves the conversion for farro. One cup of farro weighs about 190 grams, which works out to a density of 0.80 g/ml. From there, half a cup is roughly 95 g, a quarter cup about 48 g, and one tablespoon about 12 g.
Converting between weight and volume depends on density, and density is specific to each ingredient: a cup of farro does not weigh the same as a cup of flour or sugar. That is why this tool uses the measured density of farro rather than a one-size-fits-all figure.
