Formula and Step-by-Step

pints × 490g/pt ÷ 453.592g/lb = pounds
  1. Start with 344 pints of buttermilk
  2. 1 pint of buttermilk = 490g
  3. 344 × 490 = 168,560g
  4. Convert grams to pounds: 168,560 ÷ 453.592 = 371.61 lb

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.
