Formula and Step-by-Step

milliliters × 1.04g/ml ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 163.59 milliliters of buttermilk
  2. 1 milliliter of buttermilk = 1.04g
  3. 163.59 × 1.04 = 169.41g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 169.41 ÷ 28.3495 = 5.98 oz

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

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 an Ounce?

Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 5.98 oz, based on buttermilk having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of milliliters by 1.04 (grams per milliliter for buttermilk), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 163.59 milliliters: 163.59 × 1.04 = 169.41g, then 169.41 ÷ 28.3495 = 5.98 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh buttermilk 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 buttermilk 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: 5.98 oz × 28.3495 = 169.41g, then 169.41g ÷ 1.04 = 163.59 milliliters. Or use the Ounces to Milliliters converter.
