Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 8g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 56.7 tablespoons of cornstarch
  2. 1 tablespoon of cornstarch = 8g
  3. 56.7 × 8 = 453.6g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 453.6 ÷ 28.3495 = 16.00 oz

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

Measuring Tip

Humidity affects cornstarch weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 16.00 oz, based on cornstarch having a density of 128g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 8 (grams per tablespoon for cornstarch), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 56.7 tablespoons: 56.7 × 8 = 453.6g, then 453.6 ÷ 28.3495 = 16.00 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh cornstarch on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, sift or whisk first to break up clumps, then spoon into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not scoop directly from the bag.
Yes, quite a bit. If you spoon the flour into your measuring spoon and level it off, you will get about 128 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 140.8 to 160 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 16.00 oz × 28.3495 = 453.6g, then 453.6g ÷ 8 = 56.7 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
