Explanation

Use this page when a recipe gives coarse sea salt in cups and you need a repeatable gram target. The converter keeps the assumption explicit: 1 level US cup of coarse sea salt = 224 grams.

That makes recipe scaling easier without switching between inconsistent cup charts. The page stays anchored to the US cup standard (236.588 mL). Coarse Sea Salt can vary with crystal size and how tightly it settles, so fine, coarse, and kosher salts should not be treated as interchangeable by volume.

Method & Density Basis

  • Method basis: cup-to-weight conversion anchored to the US customary cup (≈236.6 mL).
  • Factor used: 224 g per 1 cup (leveled)
  • Consistency rule: direct answer, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.
