How Much Is 72 Ounces of Coconut Sugar in Cups?
Converting 72 ounces of coconut sugar to cups gives 11.34 cups. First convert to grams (72 oz = 2,041.17g), then divide by the density of coconut sugar (180g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 72 ounces of coconut sugar
- Convert ounces to grams: 72 × 28.35 = 2,041.17g
- 1 cup of coconut sugar = 180g
- 2,041.17g ÷ 180g/cup = 11.34 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Coconut sugar should be spooned into the measuring cup and leveled off. Do not pack it unless the recipe specifically says to (packing is only standard for brown sugar).
