Three kinds of ounce

Ounce can mean three different things. Pick the one that matches what you are measuring.

Ounce Grams in one 100 g is Used for
Avoirdupois ounce (oz) 28.349523125 g 3.5274 oz Food, mail, everyday weight
Troy ounce (oz t) 31.1034768 g 3.21507 oz t Gold, silver, platinum
US fluid ounce (fl oz) depends on the ingredient pick an ingredient above Volume of liquids

Grams to ounces: the formula

One ounce is exactly 28.349523125 grams, so ounces equal grams divided by 28.3495. To go the other way multiply ounces by 28.3495. That figure comes from the international pound of 0.45359237 kg divided by 16.

Standard ounce, troy ounce or fluid ounce?

  • The standard (avoirdupois) ounce weighs 28.35 g. It is the one used for food, postage and body weight.
  • The troy ounce weighs 31.1035 g, about 9.7 percent more. It is used for gold, silver, platinum and palladium. Choose "troy ounce" in the To box for those.
  • The fluid ounce measures volume, not weight. The page converts grams to fluid ounces only when you name an ingredient, because a gram of honey takes up less space than a gram of flour.

How to use it

  1. Enter the grams. You can also start from kilograms, pounds, ounces or troy ounces.
  2. Choose the ounce you want in the To box.
  3. Optional: pick an ingredient to see the volume as cups, tablespoons or fluid ounces.
  4. Use the chart for quick lookups and the scaling box to multiply a whole recipe.

Why kitchen scales and labels disagree a little

US nutrition labels treat 1 ounce as 28 g. The exact figure is 28.35 g. Over 100 g the label rounding would be off by about 1.2 percent, which is why this page gives both the exact value and a kitchen value rounded to an eighth of an ounce.
