    Around 64 grams for dry goods. If you google "cups to grams" or any other conversion (ie: tsp to cups, etc.), there are many charts that will pop up online with the info.

    There is a really good article with a chart here: http://allrecipes.com/howto/cup-to-gram-conversions/

    Covers dry conversions and wet conversions.

    Well it isn't 64 grams in this case. This is a simple math problem.

    If 1/3 cup = 30g then 1 cup = 90g
    Therefore 1/2 a cup = 45g

    When I bake I follow a recipe but nowadays every cup of something I add I weigh so I know how many grams something is. Everything has a different density. If you don't have a scale google is your friend :D
