Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.18 liters of molasses
- 1 liter of molasses = 1,437.10g
- 0.18 × 1,437.10 = 258.68g
- Convert grams to ounces: 258.68 ÷ 28.3495 = 9.12 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like molasses 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?
A liter (L) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1,000 milliliters or approximately 4.227 US cups. It is the standard large-volume measurement for cooking worldwide outside the US.
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
