Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 25.63 ounces of couscous
- Convert ounces to grams: 25.63 × 28.35 = 726.60g
- 1 cup of couscous = 173g
- 726.60g ÷ 173g/cup = 4.2 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Pour grains into the measuring cup and level off. Do not shake or tap, as this settles the grains and increases the weight.
