1 1/2 Cups of Water in Grams
1 1/2 cups of water weighs 360 grams (about 12.7 oz), based on 240 g per US cup (1 US cup = 240 ml). That's the same as 24 tablespoons of water. When a recipe's outcome depends on accuracy — especially baking — weigh it instead of measuring by cup.
1 1/2 cups is one full cup plus a half (240 g + 120 g). At this size the fill method starts to matter: the error in each cup is added, not averaged.
