When to use this converter
Ideal for spice extracts and leaveners measured in mL on a digital scale.
Common mistakes to avoid
- 1 tsp = 5 mL; kitchen spoons from cutlery sets vary — always use a measuring spoon.
- For strong flavors, measure level, not heaped.
Quick example 8.75 mL vanilla extract ≈ 1¾ tsp. Measuring by mL on a digital scale is more precise.
