Measuring Tip
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
What is a Gram?
A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.

The most accurate way is to weigh buttermilk on a kitchen scale. If you are measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height. Liquids settle naturally, so volume measurements are already quite consistent.
Very close. Pure liquid densities are consistent across brands, so the cups to grams conversion for buttermilk typically varies by less than 2-3%.
For liquids like buttermilk, volume measurements are already quite accurate since liquids settle to a consistent level. A kitchen scale adds precision but the difference is typically small for liquid ingredients.
