Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 218g/cup = cups
  1. Start with 6.35 ounces of coconut oil
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 6.35 × 28.35 = 180.02g
  3. 1 cup of coconut oil = 218g
  4. 180.02g ÷ 218g/cup = 0.83 cups

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 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.

What is a Cup?

There are three cup standards used worldwide. The US cup (236.588 ml) is used in American recipes. The metric cup (250 ml) is standard in Australia, New Zealand, and some parts of Asia. The imperial cup (284.131 ml) appears in older British and Canadian recipes. A metric cup holds about 5.7% more than a US cup, while an imperial cup holds about 20% more. Using the wrong standard can noticeably affect a recipe.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.83 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 6.35 ounces: 6.35 × 28.3495 = 180.02g, then 180.02 ÷ 218 = 0.83 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: 0.83 cups × 218g/cup = 180.02g, then 180.02g ÷ 28.3495 = 6.35 ounces. Or use the Cups to Ounces converter.
