Frequently Asked Questions

About 185.85 oz, based on cornmeal having a density of 150g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 9.38 (grams per tablespoon for cornmeal), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 562 tablespoons: 562 × 9.38 = 5,268.75g, then 5,268.75 ÷ 28.3495 = 185.85 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh cornmeal on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 185.85 oz × 28.3495 = 5,268.75g, then 5,268.75g ÷ 9.38 = 562 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
