Formula and Step-by-Step

milliliters × 0.96g/ml = grams
  1. Start with 1,020 milliliters of coconut milk
  2. 1 milliliter of coconut milk = 0.96g
  3. 1,020 × 0.96 = 974.35g

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?

Most kitchen measuring cups outside the US are marked in milliliters. A standard metric cup is 250 ml. When converting American recipes, 1 US cup = 236.588 ml.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 974.35 g, based on coconut milk having a density of 226g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of milliliters by 0.96 (grams per milliliter for coconut milk). For 1,020 milliliters: 1,020 × 0.96 = 974.35 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh coconut milk on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of coconut milk 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: 974.35 g ÷ 0.96 = 1,020 milliliters. Or use the Grams to Milliliters converter.
