150 Grams of Vegetable Oil to Cups

150 grams of vegetable oil = 0.69 cups (⅔ cup / 11.0 tbsp / 33.0 tsp)

How the 150g Figure Is Calculated

Vegetable Oil is lighter than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 150g of vegetable oil takes up more volume (163ml) than the same weight of water would (150ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 150 grams to cups page.

If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups

The 0.69 cup figure above uses the US Customary cup (236.588ml). Recipes written outside the US sometimes use a metric cup (250ml) or an imperial (uk) cup (284.131ml) instead. At 150g, that's ⅔ metric cups or ⅝ imperial cups of vegetable oil, close to the US figure but not identical. The cup standard switch in the converter above recalculates this instantly for any gram amount.

Scaling 150g Up or Down

Doubling a recipe that calls for 150g of vegetable oil means weighing 300g, or measuring 1.38 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 75g, or 0.34 cups. Weight scales exactly with simple multiplication; cup measurements compound any scooping error each time they're doubled or halved, so weighing is more reliable the more a recipe is scaled.

Vegetable Oil vs. Other Fats & Oils

Within fats & oils, density still varies by ingredient. At 150g, olive oil (216g per cup) measures ⅔ cup, while butter (227g per cup) measures ⅔ cup, compared to ⅔ cup for vegetable oil. Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.

Using Vegetable Oil in Recipes

• Recipes typically call for this ingredient in amounts ranging from a tablespoon to a full cup, depending on the dish.
• Check your specific recipe for the exact gram amount, then use the converter above to find the matching cup measurement.

How to Measure It Accurately

• Fats & Oils

  Press solid fats like butter into the cup to remove air pockets, then level the top. Liquid oils should be poured to the marked line at eye level.

• For exact results

  Room-temperature butter measures more consistently than cold butter, since cold butter can leave small gaps when pressed into a cup. For melted butter, measure the volume after melting, not before, since melting slightly changes how it fills a cup.
