Formula and Step-by-Step

(pounds × 453.59g/lb) ÷ 245g/cup = cups
  1. Start with 241 pounds of buttermilk
  2. Convert pounds to grams: 241 × 453.59 = 109,315.76g
  3. 1 cup of buttermilk = 245g
  4. 109,315.76g ÷ 245g/cup = 446.19 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.
