Measuring Coconut Oil Accurately

Why weight matters: 3/4 cup of coconut oil can weigh anywhere from 139g to 196g depending on how you measure it. The USDA standard is 163.5g (spooned and leveled). Scooping directly from the container can add 10–20% extra weight, which affects recipe results — especially in baking.

About coconut oil density: Coconut oil is solid below 76°F (24°C) and liquid above. 1 cup solid or liquid = 218g (same weight). Melted coconut oil can substitute for vegetable oil 1:1 by weight. Adds subtle coconut flavor.
