Ingredient-Specific Cups to Ounces (Weight)
Ingredient-specific cups-to-ounces (weight) factors anchored to the US cup (236.588 mL) are verified (50 ready).
Explanation
Cups-to-ounces (weight) converts the US cup (236.588 mL) into avoirdupois ounces by dividing the ingredient-specific grams-per-cup density by 28.3495. It clarifies that this is the weight ounce, not a fluid ounce, so mass-based quantities stay consistent with kitchen scaling assumptions.
How to use this hub
- Choose a converter family.
- If converting to/from grams from a volume unit, select an ingredient.
- For pure unit changes (volume↔volume or weight↔weight), use universal conversions.
If your conversion includes grams, you’ll choose an ingredient; otherwise you won’t.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the ounce (weight) factor derived?
It divides the verified grams-per-cup density by the fixed 28.3495 grams per avoirdupois ounce so ingredient-specific mass is preserved.
Why mention weight ounces instead of fluid ounces?
Because this family measures mass, we clearly state it uses the weight ounce (avoirdupois) to avoid confusion with fluid ounces.
