Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 340g/cup × 8 = fluid ounces
  1. Start with 35.98 ounces of molasses
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 35.98 × 28.35 = 1,020.02g
  3. 1 cup of molasses = 340g
  4. 1,020.02g ÷ 340g/cup = 3 cups × 8 = 24.00 fluid ounces

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

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

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 24.00 fl oz, based on molasses having a density of 340g 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 340 (grams per cup), then multiply by 8 to get fluid ounces. For 35.98 ounces: 35.98 × 28.3495 = 1,020.02g, then 1,020.02 ÷ 340 = 3 cups × 8 = 24.00 fl oz.
Weighing molasses on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring cup first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of molasses 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: 24.00 fl oz ÷ 8 = 3.00005 cups, then 3.00005 × 340g/cup = 1,020.02g, then 1,020.02g ÷ 28.3495 = 35.98 ounces. Or use the Fluid Ounces to Ounces converter.
