Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 216g/cup ÷ 4.22675 = liters
  1. Start with 198.72 grams of olive oil
  2. 1 cup of olive oil = 216g
  3. 198.72g ÷ 216g/cup = 0.92 cups ÷ 4.22675 = 0.22 liters

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

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units

What is a Gram?

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.

What is a Liter?

A liter (L) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1,000 milliliters or approximately 4.227 US cups. It is the standard large-volume measurement for cooking worldwide outside the US.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.22 L, based on olive oil having a density of 216g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 216 (grams per cup) to get cups, then divide by 4.22675 to get liters. For 198.72 grams: 198.72 ÷ 216 = 0.92 cups ÷ 4.22675 = 0.22 L.
For the most accurate results, weigh olive oil on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of olive oil changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 0.22 L × 4.22675 = 0.92 cups, then 0.92 × 216g/cup = 198.72g. Or use the Liters to Grams converter.
