Convert Cups to Grams: Semolina Flour
Convert cups of semolina flour to grams with this complete reference table. 1 cup of semolina flour = 167g (USDA FoodData Central, spooned-and-leveled method). Use the table below for fractions from 1/8 cup up to 4 cups. For precision baking, weight measurements in grams are always more reliable than volume measurements in cups, because semolina flour density can vary by measuring technique.

Based on USDA FoodData Central data (1 US cup = 240ml = 16 tablespoons = 48 teaspoons). Note: Semolina: 1 cup = 167g. Coarsely ground durum wheat — much denser than all-purpose flour. High protein content (13-15%) gives pasta its firm texture. Used for pasta, couscous, pizza dough, and gnocchi. USDA FDC 20064.
About Semolina Flour Density
The density of semolina flour determines how much it weighs per unit of volume. At 0.696g/ml, 1 US cup (240ml) of semolina flour weighs 167g under USDA standard conditions.
Volume measurements can vary by ±10–20% depending on technique (sifted vs. spooned vs. scooped). For consistent baking results, use a kitchen scale with gram measurements whenever possible. The USDA standard (spooned-and-leveled) is the reference point for all values on this page.
Frequently Asked Questions
