How Much Is 1 Ounce of Milk in Milliliters?

1 ounce of milk equals 27.49 ml. Milk has a density of 244g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.

Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 244g/cup × 236.588 = milliliters
  1. Start with 1 ounce of milk
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 1 × 28.35 = 28.35g
  3. 1 cup of milk = 244g
  4. 28.35g ÷ 244g/cup = 0.12 cups × 236.588 = 27.49 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?

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 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 27.49 ml, based on milk having a density of 244g 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 244 (grams per cup), then multiply by 236.588 to get milliliters. For 1 ounce: 1 × 28.3495 = 28.35g, then 28.35 ÷ 244 = 0.12 cups × 236.588 = 27.49 ml.
For the most accurate results, weigh milk 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 milk 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: 27.49 ml ÷ 236.588 = 0.116187 cups, then 0.116187 × 244g/cup = 28.35g, then 28.35g ÷ 28.3495 = 1 ounce. Or use the Milliliters to Ounces converter.
