50 grams of coconut oil equals 0.11 pt. Coconut oil has a density of 218g per cup. Because grams measure weight and pints measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.

Formula and Step-by-Step
grams ÷ 218g/cup × 0.5 = pints
Start with 50 grams of coconut oil
1 cup of coconut oil = 218g
50g ÷ 218g/cup = 0.23 cups × 0.5 = 0.11 pints
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.
Coconut Oil at Different Amounts
How coconut oil scales across common grams measurements. Your amount (50 grams) is highlighted.
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 Pint?
The pint is one of the most confusing measurements across countries because the difference between US and UK versions is so large. Always check which country a recipe comes from before measuring in pints.
About 0.11 pt, based on coconut oil having a density of 218g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 218 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 0.5 to get pints. For 50 grams: 50 ÷ 218 = 0.23 cups × 0.5 = 0.11 pt.
For the most accurate results, weigh coconut 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 coconut 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: 0.11 pt ÷ 0.5 = 0.229358 cups, then 0.229358 × 218g/cup = 50g. Or use the Pints to Grams converter.
