metrics vs. us measurments.

for everyone that´s confused when it comes to using american measurments instead of metrics. here are some numbers that will help you if you want to bake your favorite swedish cake with american measurments (or the other way around).
dl = deciliter, msk = matsked
tsk = tesked



1/4 cup = 0,6 dl or 4 msk
1/3 cup = 0,8 dl or 5,3 msk
1/2 cup = 1,2 dl
3/4 cup = 1,8 dl
1 cup = 2,36 dl
1,5 cup = 3,56 dl
2 cup = 4,74 dl
3 cup = 7,1 dl
4.23 cup = 1 liter



1 teaspoon = 5 ml. the same as a metric (tsk) tesked  
1 tablespoon = 15 ml. the same as a metric (msk) matsked
here are some communly used temperatures when you bake
fahrenheit             celsius
257                       125 
302                       150  
347                       175 
392                       200 
437                       225
482                       250   

don´t forget to keep on baking.
