How Much Is 0.63 Ounces of Sesame Seeds in Cups?
0.63 ounces of sesame seeds equals 0.12 cups. Sesame seeds has a density of 144g per cup. A lighter ingredient like cocoa powder (86g/cup) would fill even more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 0.63 ounces of sesame seeds
- Convert ounces to grams: 0.63 × 28.35 = 17.86g
- 1 cup of sesame seeds = 144g
- 17.86g ÷ 144g/cup = 0.12 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 sesame seeds 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.
