Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 245g/cup ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 0.09 cups of buttermilk
  2. 1 cup of buttermilk = 245g
  3. 0.09 × 245 = 22.05g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 22.05 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.78 oz

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

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?

There are three cup standards used worldwide. The US cup (236.588 ml) is used in American recipes. The metric cup (250 ml) is standard in Australia, New Zealand, and some parts of Asia. The imperial cup (284.131 ml) appears in older British and Canadian recipes. A metric cup holds about 5.7% more than a US cup, while an imperial cup holds about 20% more. Using the wrong standard can noticeably affect a recipe.

What is an Ounce?

Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.78 oz, based on buttermilk having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 245 (grams per cup for buttermilk), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 0.09 cups: 0.09 × 245 = 22.05g, then 22.05 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.78 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh buttermilk 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 buttermilk 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: 0.78 oz × 28.3495 = 22.05g, then 22.05g ÷ 245 = 0.09 cups. Or use the Ounces to Cups converter.
