| Standard (1×) | 150g (5.29 oz) | 1 cup + 2 ¾ tsp | 249.9 mL |
| 1.5× Batch | 225g (7.94 oz) | 1 ½ cups + 1 tbsp + 1 tsp | 374.9 mL |
| Double Batch (2×) | 300g (10.58 oz) | 2 ⅛ cups | 499.8 mL |

Measuring 150g of Whole Raw Almonds in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of whole raw almonds weighs 142g when measured dip and sweep, 150 Grams (150g) translates to 1.06 US cups (1 cup + 2 ¾ tsp).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 cup + 2 ¾ tsp (16.9 tablespoons total) using dip and sweep technique. Scoop almonds directly into a dry measuring cup and level flush with the top. Because whole almonds leave irregular air voids between nuts, shaking the cup settles them into a tighter pack, shifting weight from 142g up to 155g.
