How Much Is 9.86 Milliliters of Buttermilk in Grams?
9.86 milliliters of buttermilk weighs 10.21 g. This is based on buttermilk having a density of 245g per cup. Because milliliters measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 9.86 milliliters.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 9.86 milliliters of buttermilk
- 1 milliliter of buttermilk = 1.04g
- 9.86 × 1.04 = 10.21g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

Understanding the Units
What is a Milliliter?
A milliliter (ml) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1/1000 of a liter. It is the standard volume measurement for cooking in most countries outside the US. One cup equals approximately 236.588 milliliters.
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.
