Measuring 75g of Bread Flour in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of bread flour weighs 127g when measured spooned & leveled, 75 Grams (75g) translates to 0.59 US cups (½ cup + 1 tbsp + 1 ¼ tsp). By contrast, using the scooped from bag measure (148g/cup — a 21g per-cup shift), 75g occupies ½ cup (0.51 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure ½ cup + 1 tbsp + 1 ¼ tsp (9.45 tablespoons total) using spooned & leveled technique. Spoon into cup and level flat. Its 12-14% protein content yields dense granules that settle rapidly during storage.
