500 Grams of Milk to Cups
500 grams of milk (whole) equals 2 cups (2.04 US cups), based on 245 g per cup (1 US cup = 240 ml). In the kitchen, measure 2 cups + 1 tbsp. For best results, weigh milk (whole) with a scale — cup measurements vary with how the cup is filled.
Batch amounts are where cup measuring drifts furthest — small per-cup errors compound across 3 cups, so a scale pays off here.
