Baking soda: Teaspoons to Grams

By Nathan Hays · Updated July 26, 2026

1 teaspoon of baking soda weighs 4.8 grams. Small measures matter most with baking soda: a gram or two changes how a bake rises or tastes, so this chart covers the fractions recipes actually use.

Quick answer: 1 tsp = 4.8 g · 1/2 tsp = 2.4 g · 1 tbsp = 14.4 g

About this weight

Our figures follow a two-source policy: King Arthur's spooned-and-leveled weights for dry ingredients, and measured density for liquids. The typical published range is shown so you can see how much methods differ. Leaveners and seasonings are measured per level teaspoon; heaped spoons can carry half again as much, which is why precise bakers level with a knife.
