How Much Is 160 Ounces of Rye Flour in Tablespoons?
160 ounces of rye flour equals 711.52 tbsp. That's 4,535.92g, and Rye flour has a density of 102g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 160 ounces of rye flour
- Convert ounces to grams: 160 × 28.35 = 4,535.92g
- 1 cup of rye flour = 102g
- 4,535.92g ÷ 102g/cup = 44.47 cups × 16 = 711.52 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Different flour types have very different weights per cup. Always check the specific flour your recipe calls for rather than using a generic "flour" conversion.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.
What is a Tablespoon?
Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.
