How many tablespoons is 1 gram of active dry yeast?
Answer
One US tablespoon (14.8 ml) of active dry yeast weighs 12 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 175043 “Leavening agents, yeast, baker's, active dry”, portion “1 tsp” = 4 grams, and 1 US tablespoon = 3 US teaspoons.
1 gram of active dry yeast equals 0.0833 US tablespoons; the way back, from tablespoons to grams, is the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
The same 1 gram of active dry yeast is 0.25 US teaspoons.
This is the level US tablespoon of 14.8 ml. The metric tablespoon of 15 ml (UK, New Zealand, Canada) is 1.4 % larger and takes 0.0821 tablespoons; the Australian tablespoon of 20 ml is 35.3 % larger, so the same weight fills only 0.0616 tablespoons of those.
How 1 gram of active dry yeast was converted to tablespoons
A tablespoon is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US tablespoon of active dry yeast weighs 12 grams (twelve), so divide 1 by 12.
1 g ÷ 12 g
≈0.0833 tablespoons
(zero point zero eight three three tablespoons)
The weight of the tablespoon comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 175043 “Leavening agents, yeast, baker's, active dry”, portion “1 tsp” = 4 grams, and 1 US tablespoon = 3 US teaspoons. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a tablespoon weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.

This page starts from grams and answers in tablespoons. The opposite question — how many grams a recipe’s tablespoons weigh, fractions like 1/2 and 2 1/2 included — is what the tablespoons to grams converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: one US tablespoon of active dry yeast is 12 grams there and here.
