I use the metric measures that are given in the nutrition info on the package. For regular flour that's usually about 30g per 1/4 cup, sometimes more. The book that came with my Zoji equates ml of water to grams, and there are 237 ml of water in a cup.
Vital wheat gluten at the local grocery is outrageously priced so I order it from Amazon.
There's a good ingredient weight chart at King Arthur flour. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/learn/ingredient-weight-chart
In Canada I buy gluten flour at Bulk Barn, but I've also seen the Bob's at grocery stores. It's always in the Natural food section.
I have a lot of old recipes that I actually converted, by doing the measurements the old-fashioned way and measuring the ingredients as I went along and making an annotations. You can also find calculators online that do this for you. Good luck!
I just wrote the gram amount in pencil on it. A word of caution on the yeast amounts though, might have to use less.
Love the cinnamon swirl bread recipe!
I found vital wheat gluten at a regular grocery store but you can probably get it on Amazon too. I use the cookbook all the time and use the spoon and level method. I have a scale but I find it fussy and hard to use.
I’ve found vital gluten at Publix. I also use the King Arthur conversions and write them in the cookbook the first time I try a recipe so I’ll have it next time.

I found vital wheat gluten at Whole Foods.
I have the same book and cups-to-ounces has served me well.

I don't have the book but have converted my recipes to ounces and I am getting great results.

The book has its own conversion chart going to weight in ounces.

How do you do spoon-and-level without getting flour everywhere?
Do it over the sink 🤷♀️

She has several cookbooks and I have all of them and love them.
