1 kg of all-purpose flour equals approximately 1.686 litres (1,686 mL) when loosely packed. Flour bulk density is 0.593 kg/L: divide 1 by 0.593 to get 1.686 litres.
The KG in litres flour calculator converts mass of flour in kilograms (kg) to volume in litres (L) by dividing the mass by flour bulk density of 0.593 kg/L. Flour is a dry powder, not a liquid, so the conversion uses bulk density — the mass of flour per unit volume including the air gaps between particles.
To convert kilograms of flour to litres, follow 3 steps:
- Enter the mass of flour in kilograms.
- The calculator uses flour bulk density of 0.593 kg/L automatically.
- Read the result in litres, millilitres (mL), and US gallons.
Flour bulk density varies by type and packing method. Loosely spooned all-purpose flour has a bulk density of approximately 0.593 kg/L. Sifted flour is lighter at approximately 0.528 kg/L. Packed flour is heavier at approximately 0.700 kg/L. Bread flour, whole wheat flour, and cake flour each have different bulk densities. The calculator uses the standard loosely-packed all-purpose flour value of 0.593 kg/L.
