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?
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 Fluid Ounce?
Fluid ounces measure how much space a liquid takes up, while ounces (oz) measure weight. 1 fluid ounce of water weighs close to 1 oz, but for other liquids like honey or oil, the weight per fluid ounce is different.

Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The ounces to fluid ounces result for soy sauce should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. An ounce of soy sauce fills a different number of fluid ounces than an ounce of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
