Frequently Asked Questions
How many grams is a cup of vegetable oil?
1 cup of vegetable oil, poured to the cup line is 218 grams.
What should I know about measuring vegetable oil?
This conversion is for vegetable oil, poured to the cup line, and oil is less dense than water, which is why it weighs noticeably less per cup than an ingredient like milk or honey despite the same volume.
Should I use a kitchen scale instead of cups?
For baking specifically, yes if precision matters — weight doesn't vary with how tightly an ingredient is packed, so it's more consistent than volume measurement. This converter helps translate a cup-based recipe to weight, or a weight-based recipe back to cups.
