Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 218g/cup × 8 = fluid ounces
  1. Start with 9.61 ounces of coconut oil
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 9.61 × 28.35 = 272.44g
  3. 1 cup of coconut oil = 218g
  4. 272.44g ÷ 218g/cup = 1.25 cups × 8 = 10.00 fluid ounces

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

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 Fluid Ounce?

There are 8 fluid ounces in a US cup and 128 fluid ounces in a US gallon. The UK fluid ounce is slightly smaller (28.413 ml vs 29.574 ml), so UK and US recipes using fluid ounces will differ slightly.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 10.00 fl oz, based on coconut oil having a density of 218g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 218 (grams per cup), then multiply by 8 to get fluid ounces. For 9.61 ounces: 9.61 × 28.3495 = 272.44g, then 272.44 ÷ 218 = 1.25 cups × 8 = 10.00 fl oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh coconut oil on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of coconut oil changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 10.00 fl oz ÷ 8 = 1.24972 cups, then 1.24972 × 218g/cup = 272.44g, then 272.44g ÷ 28.3495 = 9.61 ounces. Or use the Fluid Ounces to Ounces converter.
