Measuring 500g of Pure Maple Syrup in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of pure maple syrup weighs 312g when measured poured liquid, 500 Grams (500g) translates to 1.60 US cups (1 ½ cups + 1 tbsp + 2 tsp). By contrast, using the boiled down / maple cream measure (325g/cup — a 13g per-cup shift), 500g occupies 1 ½ cups + 1 ¾ tsp (1.54 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ½ cups + 1 tbsp + 2 tsp (25.64 tablespoons total) using poured liquid technique. Pour at eye level in a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface, or weigh in a bowl on a digital kitchen scale.
