How Much Is 6.67 Cups of Bread Flour in Pounds?
6.67 cups of bread flour weighs 1.87 lb. This is based on bread flour having a density of 127g per cup. Because cups measure volume and pounds measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 6.67 cups.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 6.67 cups of bread flour
- 1 cup of bread flour = 127g
- 6.67 × 127 = 847.09g
- Convert grams to pounds: 847.09 ÷ 453.592 = 1.87 lb
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh bread flour on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

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 a Pound?
Pounds are the standard weight unit for buying ingredients in the US. A standard bag of flour is 5 pounds (2,268g) and a standard bag of sugar is 4 pounds (1,814g).
