Frequently Asked Questions

About 4,492.33 g, based on butter having a density of 227g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 227 (grams per cup for butter). For 19.79 cups: 19.79 × 227 = 4,492.33 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh butter on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 4,492.33 g ÷ 227 = 19.79 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
