In practice
Butter is about 80–82% fat, with the remainder water and milk solids, and a US cup is 2 sticks, which the page puts at about 227 g. Because butter is sold in marked sticks and blocks, it is easiest to weigh or cut by the markings instead of packing it into a cup. Unsalted butter is the baking default because it lets you control salt; if you substitute salted, reduce added salt by about a quarter teaspoon per stick. European-style butter has higher fat and less water, which can change flaky pastry.
How to convert cups of butter to grams
