How Much Is 0.08 Cups of Coconut Oil in Ounces?
0.08 cups of coconut oil weighs 0.62 oz. This is based on coconut oil having a density of 218g per cup. Because cups measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 0.08 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.08 cups of coconut oil
- 1 cup of coconut oil = 218g
- 0.08 × 218 = 17.44g
- Convert grams to ounces: 17.44 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.62 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

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 an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
