How Much Is 120 Teaspoons of Bread Flour in Ounces?
120 teaspoons of bread flour weighs 11.20 oz. This is based on bread flour having a density of 127g per cup. Because teaspoons 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 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 120 teaspoons of bread flour
- 1 teaspoon of bread flour = 2.65g
- 120 × 2.65 = 317.5g
- Convert grams to ounces: 317.5 ÷ 28.3495 = 11.20 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 bread 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 Teaspoon?
A US teaspoon is 4.929 ml, a metric teaspoon is exactly 5 ml, and an imperial teaspoon is 5.919 ml. The metric and US versions are nearly identical (1.4% difference), but the imperial teaspoon is 20% larger. For most spices the difference is negligible, but for leaveners like baking powder it can affect the result.
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.
