SwitchExplanation
Use this page when a recipe gives fine sea salt in cups and you need a repeatable gram target. The converter keeps the assumption explicit: 1 level US cup of fine sea salt = 240 grams.
That makes recipe scaling easier without switching between inconsistent cup charts. The page stays anchored to the US cup standard (236.588 mL). Fine 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.
