Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 245g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 980.61 grams of buttermilk
  2. 1 cup of buttermilk = 245g
  3. 980.61g ÷ 245g/cup = 4.00 cups × 16 = 64.04 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?

Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.

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 64.04 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 980.61 grams: 980.61 ÷ 245 = 4.00 cups × 16 = 64.04 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: 64.04 tbsp ÷ 16 = 4.00249 cups, then 4.00249 × 245g/cup = 980.61g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
