Working with cream of tartar
Cream of Tartar sits in the leaveners, salt & spices group, where a cup lands in the same range as water, but the material still compacts differently depending on how you fill the cup. 1 teaspoon = 3 g. Usually used in fractions of a teaspoon, so a scale that reads 0.1 g helps.
If you are converting a whole recipe rather than a single line, the Recipe to Metric converter matches every ingredient to its own density in one pass, and the Recipe Scaler resizes the batch first so you only convert once.
