How Much Is 0.17 Liters of Honey in Ounces?
0.17 liters of honey weighs 8.62 oz. This is based on honey having a density of 340g per cup. Because liters measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 0.17 liters.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.17 liters of honey
- 1 liter of honey = 1,437.10g
- 0.17 × 1,437.10 = 244.31g
- Convert grams to ounces: 244.31 ÷ 28.3495 = 8.62 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like honey are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units
What is a Liter?
Liters are the same everywhere, unlike cups, pints, and gallons which vary between US and imperial systems. This consistency is one reason professional kitchens worldwide prefer metric measurements.
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
