Formula and Step-by-Step

quarts × 872g/qt = grams
  1. Start with 0.29 quarts of vegetable oil
  2. 1 quart of vegetable oil = 872g
  3. 0.29 × 872 = 252.88g

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

Measuring Tip

Oils are lighter than water, so the same volume weighs less. Pour slowly into the measuring cup for accuracy, and wipe any drips from the outside before reading.

The quart gets its name from "quarter" (of a gallon). One US quart is about 5.7% smaller than 1 liter (946 ml vs 1,000 ml). Always use the exact unit your recipe specifies.

What is a Gram?

A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.
