Converts recipe measurements, from cups to litres, Fahrenheit to Celsius and vice-versa.
ConvertCups Extension
Converts between cups and ml/litres making online recipes easier to follow if you're on either of the wrong sides of the Atlantic :)
Also converts oven temperatures between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
Click the pink cup icon to convert the current web page.
Hover over converted measurements (highlighted in pink) to see the original text.
### Options
+ change cup measurement for US/Canada/Japan/metric
+ choose what you want to convert (eg. ml --> cups or cups --> ml)
### Overview
+ Focuses on simplicity, keeping to round numbers like 200C rather than 203C (may sometimes be out by a couple of degrees or ml but should be fine for cooks to use - if the recipe uses cups for measuring exact precision probably isn't paramount)
+ Converted pages can be printed out in the normal way.
+ Recipes using cups are measuring by volume rather than weight which is quite different. This addon doesn't change that but should still help make recipes more usable.
**It's very easy to use but here's a video**
