How Much Is 13.02 Ounces of Ricotta in Cups?
13.02 ounces of ricotta equals 1.50 cups. That's 369.11g, and Ricotta has a density of 246g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 13.02 ounces of ricotta
- Convert ounces to grams: 13.02 × 28.35 = 369.11g
- 1 cup of ricotta = 246g
- 369.11g ÷ 246g/cup = 1.50 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Ricotta should be at room temperature for accurate volume measurement. Cold ricotta holds air pockets that change the weight.

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?
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.
