Tablespoons to mL
Turn a spoon count into a volume you can pour. Panmetry keeps US, 15 mL and Australian 20 mL tablespoons separate so your recipe uses the intended measure.
A measure that matches your recipe
Panmetry keeps the unit standard you select attached to the result, so you can move straight from the recipe to your measuring tools.

Match the tablespoon before measuring
Choose the tablespoon standard used in the recipe, then enter whole or fractional spoonfuls. A 20 mL Australian tablespoon and a 15 mL measuring tablespoon are different selections.
Use a small jug for several spoonfuls
For a quantity such as 20,30 or 60 mL, start from the reverse table or switch the calculator direction. This is useful when you have a graduated jug instead of a tablespoon.
