How many milliliters are in a glass: faceted and regular

Not every housewife can boast of having such a useful household appliance as a kitchen scale. Meanwhile, their absence can play a cruel joke, ruining the taste of the finished cake or biscuit. An ordinary glass is able to help out in this situation.

But if the capacity of a faceted one does not raise questions (after all, everyone knows that it is equal to 250 ml), then determining the volume of other varieties can cause difficulties. Meanwhile, it is this dish that is most often used when it is necessary to measure the required dosage of a free-flowing or liquid product. Therefore, it is so useful to know how much this or that variety contains.

How many ml is in a faceted glass

A standard faceted dish holds from two hundred ml to a quarter of a liter. This discrepancy in roominess is due to the fact that the dishes can be different:

1. The traditional model with a border located at the top of the product holds 0.25 liters.
2. The second type does not have a border, therefore it is less spacious. The volume does not exceed 200 ml.

You need to select the most suitable variety, focusing on the milliliters indicated in the recipes.

2. When filling a variety without a border to the very edge, the capacity will also be 200 ml.
3. Decorated with curly edges, it holds 200 milliliters of liquid and the same grams of dry products.
