Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 5.10g/tsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces

Start with 4 teaspoons of buttermilk
1 teaspoon of buttermilk = 5.10g
4 × 5.10 = 20.42g
Convert grams to ounces: 20.42 ÷ 28.3495 = 0.72 oz

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

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring spoon on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.
