How Much Is 24 Pints of Molasses in Ounces?
24 pints of molasses weighs 575.67 oz. This is based on molasses having a density of 340g per cup. Because pints measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 24 pints.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 24 pints of molasses
- 1 pint of molasses = 680g
- 24 × 680 = 16,320g
- Convert grams to ounces: 16,320 ÷ 28.3495 = 575.67 oz
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?
US and UK pints are very different sizes. A US pint is 473 ml while a UK (imperial) pint is 568 ml, making the UK pint about 20% larger. A "pint of milk" in a British recipe is significantly more than in an American recipe.
What is an Ounce?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
