Formula and Step-by-Step

(pounds × 453.59g/lb) ÷ 328g/cup × 0.5 = pints
  1. Start with 11.57 pounds of corn syrup
  2. Convert pounds to grams: 11.57 × 453.59 = 5,248.06g
  3. 1 cup of corn syrup = 328g
  4. 5,248.06g ÷ 328g/cup = 16.00 cups × 0.5 = 8.00 pints

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Sticky liquids like corn syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 8.00 pt, based on corn syrup having a density of 328g 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 328 (grams per cup), then multiply by 0.5 to get pints. For 11.57 pounds: 11.57 × 453.592 = 5,248.06g, then 5,248.06 ÷ 328 = 16.00 cups × 0.5 = 8.00 pt.
Weighing corn syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring cup first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of corn syrup 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: 8.00 pt ÷ 0.5 = 16.0002 cups, then 16.0002 × 328g/cup = 5,248.06g, then 5,248.06g ÷ 453.592 = 11.57 pounds. Or use the Pints to Pounds converter.
