| 1.5× Batch | 375g (13.23 oz) | 2 ½ cups + 2 tbsp + ¾ tsp | 624.8 mL |
| Double Batch (2×) | 500g (17.64 oz) | 3 ½ cups + 1 tsp | 833.1 mL |

Measuring 250g 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, 250 Grams (250g) translates to 1.76 US cups (1 ¾ cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure 1 ¾ cups (28.17 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.
