How Much Is 1.5 Pints of Molasses in Grams?
1.5 pints of molasses weighs 1,020.00 g. This is based on molasses having a density of 340g per cup. Because pints measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 1.5 pints.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 1.5 pints of molasses
- 1 pint of molasses = 680g
- 1.5 × 680 = 1,020g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like molasses are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units
What is a Pint?
A US pint equals 473.176 ml, 2 cups, or 16 fluid ounces. It is used for liquids, ice cream, and other volume measurements in American cooking.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
