Full API documentation

Explanation

Convert US fluid ounces of guinness to grams using a density reference of 1.01 g/mL. On that basis, 1 US fluid ounce works out to 29.87 grams for this ingredient.

That keeps guinness tied to one density reference instead of switching between generic liquid charts. Guinness can vary a little with formulation and temperature, so the converter keeps one density reference for consistency.

Method & Density Basis

  • Density basis: 1.01 g/mL (anchored to US cup 236.588 mL and US fl oz 29.57 mL).
  • Applied factor: 1 Fluid Ounce = 29.87 Grams.
  • Consistency rule: mirror pages invert the same per-liquid constants so forward and reverse directions remain aligned.
  • Source: Beer density approximation (Beer density approximation near room temperature.)

Methodology

Guinness density evidence

Guinness uses 1.01 g/mL in this dataset, which is 1.0% heavier by volume than the 1 g/mL water reference. Evidence status: medium-confidence. Source basis: Beer density approximation near room temperature.

Brand formulation, alcohol or sugar concentration, carbonation, and serving temperature can change the weight of a measured volume. Use this value as a documented reference rather than a producer specification.
