Formula and Step-by-Step

(pounds × 453.59g/lb) ÷ 245g/cup = cups
  1. Start with 134 pounds of buttermilk
  2. Convert pounds to grams: 134 × 453.59 = 60,781.38g
  3. 1 cup of buttermilk = 245g
  4. 60,781.38g ÷ 245g/cup = 248.09 cups

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.

Understanding the Units

What is a Pound?

The abbreviation "lb" comes from the Latin word "libra." One pound equals exactly 453.59237 grams. For rough mental math, 1 pound is slightly less than half a kilogram.

What is a Cup?

In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 248.09 cups, based on buttermilk having a density of 245g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert pounds to grams (1 pound = 453.592g), then divide by 245 (grams per cup). For 134 pounds: 134 × 453.592 = 60,781.38g, then 60,781.38 ÷ 245 = 248.09 cups.
For the most accurate results, weigh buttermilk on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring cup on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of buttermilk changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 248.09 cups × 245g/cup = 60,781.38g, then 60,781.38g ÷ 453.592 = 134 pounds. Or use the Cups to Pounds converter.
