50 grams of bread flour in cups
50 g ÷ 120 g per cup = 0.417 cups
A cup of bread flour weighs 120 g, so 50 g fills 0.42 cups — about ½ cup. Going this direction is the one most worth doing with a scale rather than a cup: measuring about ½ cup accurately by eye is hard, and weighing 50 g is not. The source line is "1 cup = 120 g", from King Arthur Baking.
Flour is the ingredient this goes most wrong on. The weight above assumes the flour is spooned into the cup and levelled off. Dipping the cup into the bag compacts it and can add a fifth — the usual reason a recipe comes out dry.
