One US cup of active dry yeast weighs about 168 grams. That works out to 10.5 g per tablespoon and 3.5 g per teaspoon. 1 tsp ≈ 3.5 g. Instant yeast is slightly lighter (~3.2 g/tsp). Weights vary slightly by brand, moisture, and how tightly you pack - for precise baking, a kitchen scale beats volume measures.
About 168 grams, scoop-and-level for dry ingredients. 1 tsp ≈ 3.5 g. Instant yeast is slightly lighter (~3.2 g/tsp).
One US tablespoon (15 mL) of active dry yeast is about 10.5 grams. A teaspoon is 3.5 g.
Dry ingredients are weighed by how they pack into the cup volume. Active Dry Yeast has an apparent density of about 0.71 g/mL - lighter than water - depending on particle size and air gaps.
100 g ÷ 168 g/cup ≈ 0.60 cups - about a little less than a full cup. The reverse table on this page covers 25-1000 g.
Weighing is more accurate - volume measures vary with how you scoop, pack, and level, and brands differ by 5-15%. For cookies and cakes where ratios matter, grams are the professional standard. The tables here convert either direction.
