Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 218g/cup = grams
  1. Start with 4.34 cups of coconut oil
  2. 1 cup of coconut oil = 218g
  3. 4.34 × 218 = 946.12g

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units

What is a Cup?

The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.

What is a Gram?

Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 946.12 g, based on coconut oil having a density of 218g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 218 (grams per cup for coconut oil). For 4.34 cups: 4.34 × 218 = 946.12 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh coconut oil on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of coconut oil changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 946.12 g ÷ 218 = 4.34 cups. Or use the Grams to Cups converter.
