Why sources disagree

Both figures land on 227 g, which is 8 ounces by weight. King Arthur lists one figure for all yogurt. USDA's SR Legacy data gives a cup weight for regular plain whole-milk yogurt (245 g) but only container weights for plain Greek yogurt. Thick Greek yogurt is hard to level in a cup, so weighing it is more reliable.

Bold row is the figure the calculator uses. Figures listed for a smaller measure are multiplied up to one cup.

How to measure Greek yogurt accurately

Stir the yogurt smooth, then spoon it into a dry measuring cup and level it.
Weigh it straight into the bowl to skip scraping thick yogurt out of the cup.
Weigh on a digital scale when you can, since cup scoops vary from cook to cook.

Convert the whole recipe, not one line

Converting a recipe one ingredient at a time is where mistakes slip in. Sous Chef imports a recipe from a link or pasted text, then converts every ingredient at once: dry ingredients and butter to grams, liquids to millilitres. Tap again to go back to cups.

US recipe

2¼ cups all-purpose flour

1½ cups milk

In Sous Chef, after "Convert to metric"

275 g all-purpose flour
225 g butter, softened
170 g brown sugar, packed
350 ml milk

Example output. Sous Chef rounds to amounts you would actually weigh, so its numbers can differ by a few grams from the table above.
