Centiliters (cL) to US cups (cup) Conversion
Centiliters
The centilitre is a unit of volume equal to one hundredth of a litre (10 mL), used primarily in Europe for expressing beverage servings and wine bottle volumes. A standard wine glass serving in European restaurants is typically 12.5 cL, and spirits are commonly served in 2.5 or 5 cL measures. The centilitre is rarely used in scientific contexts, where millilitres and litres are preferred.
US cups
The cup is a unit of volume used primarily in cooking and baking, equal to exactly 236.5882365 mL in the US customary system. The metric cup (250 mL) is used in Australia, Canada, and South Africa. In culinary education, cup measurements form the practical basis of recipe standardisation, though the variation between US, metric, and UK cups is a common source of international recipe confusion.
