Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.16 liters of buttermilk
- 1 liter of buttermilk = 1,035.55g
- 0.16 × 1,035.55 = 165.69g
- Convert grams to ounces: 165.69 ÷ 28.3495 = 5.84 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

One liter is about 5.7% larger than a US quart (1,000 ml vs 946 ml) and about 12% smaller than a UK quart (1,000 ml vs 1,137 ml). Always convert precisely rather than treating them as interchangeable.
