About milliliters and US tablespoons

Volume units are everywhere in cooking, drinks, fuel and medicine. US recipes use cups, tablespoons and fluid ounces; most of the world uses millilitres and litres.

This converter changes milliliters (mL) into US tablespoons (tbsp) instantly. You can also type in the second box to convert backwards, or pick any other volume unit from the menus.

Formula

tbsp = mL ÷ 14.78676478 1 mL = 0.067628045 tbsp 1 tbsp = 14.78676478 mL

Both units are defined in litres: 1 milliliter = 0.001 litre, and 1 US tablespoon = 0.014786764781 litre. Dividing one by the other gives the factor above.

Worked example

To convert 12 mL: 12 × 0.067628045 = 0.811537 tbsp.

Notes and assumptions

Uses US customary units. A metric cup is 250 mL and a UK (imperial) gallon is 4.54609 L, so results differ if your recipe or spec uses those.

Common mistakes

  • Mixing US and UK units. A UK pint (568 mL) is about 20% bigger than a US pint (473 mL).
  • Treating fluid ounces (volume) and ounces (weight) as the same thing. They only match for water-like liquids.
  • Using a metric cup (250 mL) recipe with a US cup (236.6 mL) measure. The gap is small but adds up in baking.
