Formula and Step-by-Step

cups × 253g/cup ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 0.32 cups of egg yolks
  2. 1 cup of egg yolks = 253g
  3. 0.32 × 253 = 80.96g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 80.96 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.86 oz

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

Measuring Tip

Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.

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 an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 2.86 oz, based on egg yolks having a density of 253g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 253 (grams per cup for egg yolks), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 0.32 cups: 0.32 × 253 = 80.96g, then 80.96 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.86 oz.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg yolks on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If measuring by volume, pour into the measuring cup and read the level at eye height.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 2.86 oz × 28.3495 = 80.96g, then 80.96g ÷ 253 = 0.32 cups. Or use the Ounces to Cups converter.
