Formula and Step-by-Step

pints × 464g/pt ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 3 pints of cooking wine
  2. 1 pint of cooking wine = 464g
  3. 3 × 464 = 1,392g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 1,392 ÷ 28.3495 = 49.10 oz

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.
