Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 255g/cup × 236.588 = milliliters
  1. Start with 159.38 grams of soy sauce
  2. 1 cup of soy sauce = 255g
  3. 159.38g ÷ 255g/cup = 0.63 cups × 236.588 = 147.87 milliliters

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

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

Most kitchen measuring cups outside the US are marked in milliliters. A standard metric cup is 250 ml. When converting American recipes, 1 US cup = 236.588 ml.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 147.87 ml, based on soy sauce having a density of 255g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 255 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 236.588 to get milliliters. For 159.38 grams: 159.38 ÷ 255 = 0.63 cups × 236.588 = 147.87 ml.
For the most accurate results, weigh soy sauce 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 soy sauce 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: 147.87 ml ÷ 236.588 = 0.62502 cups, then 0.62502 × 255g/cup = 159.38g. Or use the Milliliters to Grams converter.
