Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 167 cups of shredded coconut
- 1 cup of shredded coconut = 80g
- 167 × 80 = 13,360g
- Convert grams to ounces: 13,360 ÷ 28.3495 = 471.26 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Toast shredded coconut before adding to recipes for richer flavor. Toasting does not significantly change the weight.
