Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 6.38g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 3 tablespoons of rye flour
  2. 1 tablespoon of rye flour = 6.38g
  3. 3 × 6.38 = 19.13g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 19.13 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.67 oz

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

Measuring Tip

For the most consistent results, weigh rye flour on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

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?

Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.67 oz, based on rye flour having a density of 102g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 6.38 (grams per tablespoon for rye flour), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 3 tablespoons: 3 × 6.38 = 19.13g, then 19.13 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.67 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh rye flour 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 102 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 112.2 to 127.5 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 0.67 oz × 28.3495 = 19.13g, then 19.13g ÷ 6.38 = 3 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
