Measuring Tip

Softened butter and melted butter measure differently by volume. Melted butter settles with no air pockets, giving a slightly higher weight per cup.

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?

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 16.23 oz, based on butter having a density of 227g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of teaspoons by 4.73 (grams per teaspoon for butter), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 97.27 teaspoons: 97.27 × 4.73 = 460.01g, then 460.01 ÷ 28.3495 = 16.23 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh butter 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.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
