How Much Is 64 Ounces of Flaxseed in Cups?
Converting 64 ounces of flaxseed to cups gives 12.26 cups. First convert to grams (64 oz = 1,814.37g), then divide by the density of flaxseed (148g per cup). Each ingredient fills a different volume at the same weight.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 64 ounces of flaxseed
- Convert ounces to grams: 64 × 28.35 = 1,814.37g
- 1 cup of flaxseed = 148g
- 1,814.37g ÷ 148g/cup = 12.26 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh flaxseed on a kitchen scale. Small seeds are easy to over-measure by volume.

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.
