Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 8 pints of molasses
- 1 pint of molasses = 680g
- 8 × 680 = 5,440g
- Convert grams to ounces: 5,440 ÷ 28.3495 = 191.89 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Understanding the Units
What is a Pint?
The pint is one of the most confusing measurements across countries because the difference between US and UK versions is so large. Always check which country a recipe comes from before measuring in pints.
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.
