Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 245g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 432 grams of buttermilk
  2. 1 cup of buttermilk = 245g
  3. 432g ÷ 245g/cup = 1.76 cups × 16 = 28.21 tablespoons

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

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

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 Tablespoon?

Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 28.21 tbsp, based on buttermilk having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 245 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 432 grams: 432 ÷ 245 = 1.76 cups × 16 = 28.21 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh buttermilk on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring spoon on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of buttermilk 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: 28.21 tbsp ÷ 16 = 1.76327 cups, then 1.76327 × 245g/cup = 432g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
