Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 218g/cup = cups
  1. Start with 106 ounces of coconut oil
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 106 × 28.35 = 3,005.05g
  3. 1 cup of coconut oil = 218g
  4. 3,005.05g ÷ 218g/cup = 13.78 cups

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

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

Understanding the Units

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.

What is a Cup?

In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 13.78 cups, based on coconut oil having a density of 218g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 218 (grams per cup). For 106 ounces: 106 × 28.3495 = 3,005.05g, then 3,005.05 ÷ 218 = 13.78 cups.
For the most accurate results, weigh coconut oil 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 oil 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: 13.78 cups × 218g/cup = 3,005.05g, then 3,005.05g ÷ 28.3495 = 106 ounces. Or use the Cups to Ounces converter.
