Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 13.02 ounces of cottage cheese
- Convert ounces to grams: 13.02 × 28.35 = 369.11g
- 1 cup of cottage cheese = 226g
- 369.11g ÷ 226g/cup = 1.63 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Cottage cheese should be at room temperature for accurate volume measurement. Cold cottage cheese holds air pockets that change the weight.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
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.
