How Much Is 0.47 Cups of Steel Cut Oats in Ounces?
0.47 cups of steel cut oats equals 2.65 oz. Steel cut oats has a density of 160g per cup (160g per cup), which means it's moderate weight compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 0.47 cups of all-purpose flour would be 2.07 oz.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.47 cups of steel cut oats
- 1 cup of steel cut oats = 160g
- 0.47 × 160 = 75.2g
- Convert grams to ounces: 75.2 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.65 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Oats come in multiple forms (rolled, steel-cut, instant) that have different densities. Steel-cut oats are nearly twice as heavy per cup as rolled oats.

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?
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.
