Grams to milliliters (mL) — water approximation
Convert grams to milliliters using water density (1 g = 1 mL). Actual values vary by ingredient density.
Valid for water. Oils (lighter ≈ 0.92 g/mL), honey (heavier ≈ 1.42 g/mL), and other ingredients need ingredient-specific converters.
Density note These values use water density as an approximation. For flour, sugar, oil, honey and other ingredients results will differ — use the ingredient-specific pages for precision.

When to use this converter
Reliable for water and aqueous solutions. Milk, oil, honey and syrups have different densities.
Common mistakes to avoid
- For oils: 1 mL ≈ 0.92 g (lighter). For honey: 1 mL ≈ 1.42 g (heavier). Don't assume 1-to-1.
- Even small density differences accumulate at volume — always check for cooking accuracy.
Quick example 250 g of water = 250 mL. But 250 g of olive oil ≈ 272 mL. Use ingredient-specific pages.
