Understanding the Units
What is a Fluid Ounce?
Fluid ounces measure how much space a liquid takes up, while ounces (oz) measure weight. 1 fluid ounce of water weighs close to 1 oz, but for other liquids like honey or oil, the weight per fluid ounce is different.

Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
