Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 218g/cup × 236.588 = milliliters
  1. Start with 2 ounces of vegetable oil
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 2 × 28.35 = 56.70g
  3. 1 cup of vegetable oil = 218g
  4. 56.70g ÷ 218g/cup = 0.26 cups × 236.588 = 61.53 milliliters

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

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring cup on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

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?

Milliliters measure volume and are used worldwide for cooking and baking. For water at room temperature, 1 ml weighs approximately 1 gram, but this relationship does not hold for other ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 61.53 ml, based on vegetable 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 236.588 to get milliliters. For 2 ounces: 2 × 28.3495 = 56.70g, then 56.70 ÷ 218 = 0.26 cups × 236.588 = 61.53 ml.
For the most accurate results, weigh vegetable 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 vegetable 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: 61.53 ml ÷ 236.588 = 0.260087 cups, then 0.260087 × 218g/cup = 56.70g, then 56.70g ÷ 28.3495 = 2 ounces. Or use the Milliliters to Ounces converter.
