Weight Ounces to Grams Converter

Convert an ingredient mass stated in avoirdupois ounces into grams for a kitchen scale, package comparison, or metric recipe. Check that the source says weight ounces rather than fluid ounces.

Swap to Grams to Oz (Cooking)

Enter decimals, fractions, mixed fractions, or scientific notation. Commas and negative quantities are rejected. Results display up to four decimals.

Use The Weight-Ounce Factor

The formula is grams = weight ounces x 28.349523125. One ounce displays as 28.3495 g, 8 ounces as 226.7962 g, and 1/8 ounce as 3.5437 g.

The calculation happens before the result is rounded for display. Keep the source package value if a regulated label or recipe uses its own stated serving convention.

Do Not Substitute Fluid Ounces

A fluid ounce measures volume. Its mass in grams depends on the substance, so a fluid-ounce amount cannot be passed through this weight formula without additional density information. Troy ounces also use a different mass definition.

Measurement Reference

The kitchen measurements guide explains weight, volume, and regional labels before you choose a converter.
