180 Grams to Cups

180 grams is 1½ cups of all-purpose flour, ⅞ cup of granulated sugar, or ¾ cup of butter — the answer changes for every ingredient because cups measure volume, not weight.

180g is also approximately 1 cup of uncooked long-grain rice — a handy benchmark for meal-prep and rice cooker recipes that list grams.


🍳

180g ≈ 1 cup of uncooked rice. Long-grain white rice weighs about 185g per US cup, so 180g is essentially 1 cup (97% of a cup). For meal prep and rice cooker recipes, treat 180g of rice as 1 cup with confidence.
