A kaffekopp (plural: kaffekoppar; abbreviation: kkp) is a unit of volume in the metric system equal to 150 milliliters (0.15 liters).
While not an official international unit, it is a traditional measurement essential for authentic Scandinavian baking and cooking.
The term "kaffekopp" is Swedish for "coffee cup."
This charming unit of measurement originated in traditional Scandinavian kitchens, where recipes were passed down using common household items, such as a standard-sized coffee cup, to measure ingredients.
To create consistency, the volume was later standardized to exactly 150 ml (or 1.5 dl), which reflects the typical size of an older Swedish coffee cup.
This standardization allows cooks everywhere to recreate historic recipes with perfect results.
Adapting a traditional Swedish recipe is easy when you know the right conversions.
One kaffekopp (kkp) is equal to:
Having these quick conversions is crucial for any baker or cook outside of Scandinavia wanting to follow traditional recipes without the guesswork.
The kaffekopp (coffee cup) is a traditional Swedish measure used in many classic baking recipes—especially for dry ingredients like flour and sugar.
For instance, an old sockerkaka (sponge cake) recipe might call for "2 kkp socker" (2 kaffekoppar of sugar).
Using this familiar, standardized cup helps maintain the correct ingredient ratios, which is crucial for achieving the authentic texture and flavor of Scandinavian baked goods.
So next time you see kkp in a recipe, you'll know exactly what to use.
A fluid ounce (fl oz) is a common unit used to measure volume in the imperial and US customary systems.
It tells you how much space a liquid takes up.
This is a common point of confusion: no, they are not the same!
The US fluid ounce is slightly larger than the UK (Imperial) fluid ounce. This slight difference is crucial to remember for recipes and measurements, especially when converting between systems.
The word "ounce" can be tricky because it measures two different things:
A fluid ounce (fl oz) measures volume (how much space something occupies).
An ounce (oz) measures weight (how heavy something is).
Think of it like this: a fluid ounce tells you the size of a container, while a regular ounce tells you how heavy its contents are.
For example, one fluid ounce of honey is much heavier than one fluid ounce of cooking oil because honey has a higher density.
The idea of the fluid ounce has a practical history.
In the British Imperial system, it was initially defined as the volume taken up by one ounce of water at a specific temperature.
This simple link between weight and volume made it a convenient and intuitive unit for measuring everyday liquids like water, wine, and ale for centuries.
