Measuring 100g of Coconut Oil in the Kitchen
Because 1 US Customary Cup (236.6 mL) of coconut oil weighs 218g when measured solid spooned or poured liquid, 100 Grams (100g) translates to 0.46 US cups (⅓ cup + 2 tbsp). By contrast, using the melted liquid (above 76°f) measure (218g/cup — an identical per-cup density), 100g occupies ⅓ cup + 2 tbsp (0.46 cups).
Without a kitchen scale, measure ⅓ cup + 2 tbsp (7.34 tablespoons total) using solid spooned or poured liquid technique. Coconut oil liquefies at 76°F (24°C). When solid, pack firmly into measuring cup; when warm and clear, measure as liquid.
