Formula and Step-by-Step

teaspoons × 5.08g/tsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces

Start with 8 teaspoons of milk
1 teaspoon of milk = 5.08g
8 × 5.08 = 40.67g
Convert grams to ounces: 40.67 ÷ 28.3495 = 1.43 oz

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

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
