125 g ⅝ cup
200 g 1 cup
250 g 1⅙ cups
500 g 2⅜ cups

Where this number comes from

Most of our weights are the King Arthur Baking chart figure, unchanged. This one is not, and it is worth saying why: USDA FoodData Central (FDC 173471, vanilla extract) lists 1 cup = 208 g and 1 tbsp = 13 g — lighter than water, because the extract is about 35% alcohol. King Arthur's chart gives 14 g per tbsp.

Every value we don't depart on is locked to the chart by a test, and each departure is pinned to the publication it names, so this list stays short and deliberate — you can read all of them on the methodology page.
