Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 245g/cup × 236.588 = milliliters
  1. Start with 3 ounces of buttermilk
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 3 × 28.35 = 85.05g
  3. 1 cup of buttermilk = 245g
  4. 85.05g ÷ 245g/cup = 0.35 cups × 236.588 = 82.13 milliliters

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 Milliliter?

A milliliter (ml) is a metric unit of volume equal to 1/1000 of a liter. It is the standard volume measurement for cooking in most countries outside the US. One cup equals approximately 236.588 milliliters.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 82.13 ml, based on buttermilk having a density of 245g 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 245 (grams per cup), then multiply by 236.588 to get milliliters. For 3 ounces: 3 × 28.3495 = 85.05g, then 85.05 ÷ 245 = 0.35 cups × 236.588 = 82.13 ml.
For the most accurate results, weigh buttermilk 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 buttermilk 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: 82.13 ml ÷ 236.588 = 0.347137 cups, then 0.347137 × 245g/cup = 85.05g, then 85.05g ÷ 28.3495 = 3 ounces. Or use the Milliliters to Ounces converter.
