How Much Is 120 Tablespoons of Bread Flour in Ounces?
120 tablespoons of bread flour weighs 33.60 oz. This is based on bread flour having a density of 127g per cup. Because tablespoons measure volume and ounces measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 120 tablespoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 120 tablespoons of bread flour
- 1 tablespoon of bread flour = 7.94g
- 120 × 7.94 = 952.5g
- Convert grams to ounces: 952.5 ÷ 28.3495 = 33.60 oz
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Different flour types have very different weights per cup. Always check the specific flour your recipe calls for rather than using a generic "flour" conversion.

Understanding the Units
What is a Tablespoon?
One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.
What is an Ounce?
Ounces are commonly used in US recipes for cheese, meat, chocolate, and other ingredients sold by weight. Many kitchen scales offer both gram and ounce readings.
