Dry Bean Arithmetic
We recognize that sometimes you want to use canned beans, sometimes dry, so here's a handy chart to remind you of the various relationships between dry, cooked and canned beans:
** Dry beans expand to about 2-1/2 times their original size when soaked.
** A one-pound package of dry beans equals about 2 cups dry, or 5-6 cups cooked.
** One 15 ounce can (drained) equals about 1-2/3 cups cooked beans.
Using the information supplied above:
1 2/3 cups of cooked beans (point 3 above) divided by 2 1/2 (the expansion factor in point 1 above ) equals:
2/3 cup of dry beans cooks up to 1 can of cooked beans.
There are two cups in a pound of beans. A small bag of beans is generally 16 ounces, which measures out to two cups.

There are approximately 6 cups in 48 ounces of dried craisins. This is based on the assumption that 1 cup of dried cranberries (craisins) weighs about 8 ounces. Therefore, dividing 48 ounces by 8 ounces per cup gives you 6 cups.
10 fluid ounces equals 1 and 1/4 cups.
A standard 19 oz can of red kidney beans typically contains about 1.5 to 2 cups of beans when drained and rinsed. In dried form, approximately 1 cup of dried red kidney beans will yield about 2 to 3 cups of cooked beans, depending on cooking methods and soak time. Therefore, you would need about 1/2 to 2/3 cup of dried red kidney beans to equal the contents of a 19 oz can.
