Liter to Tablespoons Conversion Formula

For US tablespoons: Tablespoons = Liters × 67.628

For UK/Imperial tablespoons: Tablespoons = Liters × 56.312

For Australian tablespoons: Tablespoons = Liters × 50

This difference exists because tablespoon sizes vary internationally:

• A US tablespoon equals 14.79 milliliters
• A UK tablespoon equals 17.76 milliliters
• An Australian tablespoon equals 20 milliliters

To convert 0.75 liters to US tablespoons: Tablespoons = 0.75 × 67.628 = 50.721 tablespoons

That’s nearly 51 tablespoons, which is helpful to know if you’re measuring something like oil or vanilla extract where precision matters for your recipe’s success.

How to Convert Liters to Tbsp

Converting liters to tablespoons is easy once you know the steps. Here’s a foolproof method:

• Identify which tablespoon measurement you’re working with (US, UK, or Australian)
• Select the correct conversion factor:
  • 67.628 for US tablespoons
  • 56.312 for UK tablespoons
  • 50 for Australian tablespoons
• Multiply your liter value by the conversion factor
• Round to a practical number if needed (usually 1 decimal place is sufficient for cooking)

For practical kitchen use, remember these shortcuts:

• 1 liter ≈ 68 US tablespoons (rounded for easier mental math)
• Half a liter ≈ 34 US tablespoons
• Quarter liter ≈ 17 US tablespoons

Let’s convert 0.35 liters to US tablespoons:

• We’re using US tablespoons, so our conversion factor is 67.628
• Calculate: 0.35 × 67.628 = 23.67 tablespoons
• For practical cooking, we might round to 23.7 or simply 24 tablespoons

This equals 1.5 cups of liquid, which might be a more convenient way to measure depending on your available measuring tools.

What is Liters and Tbsp?

Liters and tablespoons are both units of volume measurement, but they serve different purposes and belong to different measurement systems.

Liters (L) are part of the metric system and are commonly used for:

• Measuring larger volumes of liquids
• Commercial food and beverage packaging
• Scientific applications and pharmaceutical dosing
• Recipes in most countries outside the United States

• 1 liter equals exactly 1,000 milliliters or 1,000 cubic centimeters
• A liter of water weighs almost exactly 1 kilogram at room temperature
• The standard soda bottle contains 2 liters
• A milk carton typically holds 1 liter in many countries

Tablespoons (Tbsp) are primarily used in cooking and baking for:

• Measuring smaller amounts of ingredients
• Adding seasonings and flavorings
• Portioning medications in home healthcare
• Following recipes in countries using imperial measurements

• A US tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons or 1/16 of a cup
• Tablespoons are not standardized globally (US, UK, and Australian tablespoons differ)
• Most measuring spoon sets include a tablespoon
• Many medication dosing instructions use tablespoons (though milliliters are becoming more common for accuracy)

Example 1: Converting 0.125 Liters to Tablespoons

For a delicate sauce recipe calling for 0.125 liters of cream:

US Tablespoons = 0.125 × 67.628 = 8.454 tablespoons

In practical kitchen terms, you would use 8.5 tablespoons of cream, which is just over half a cup. This small amount shows why precise conversions matter for ingredients that significantly impact flavor.

Example 2: Converting 1.5 Liters to Tablespoons

For a punch recipe serving a large gathering that requires 1.5 liters of fruit juice:

US Tablespoons = 1.5 × 67.628 = 101.442 tablespoons

That’s approximately 101.4 tablespoons or about 6.3 cups of juice. For this larger volume, you’d likely use cup measurements rather than counting out tablespoons, but knowing the conversion helps ensure accuracy when scaling recipes.

Example 3: Converting 0.075 Liters to Tablespoons

For a salad dressing recipe specifying 0.075 liters of olive oil:

US Tablespoons = 0.075 × 67.628 = 5.072 tablespoons

You would use 5 tablespoons of olive oil for this recipe. This example demonstrates how the conversion is particularly useful for smaller quantities where precision affects the balance of flavors in a dish.
