Kidney beans are large, dark-red beans common in chilli, soups, and salads. One metric cup (250 ml) of cooked, drained kidney beans weighs around 185 grams or 6.53 ounces. When a recipe lists beans in cups but you are working from a can or a pot, converting by weight keeps the bean ratio right.

A 400 g can drains to roughly 240 g of beans, a little over one metric cup, while recipes switch between cups, grams, and cans. Weighing in grams ties them together so a chilli or salad lands on target.
