750 Grams of Olive Oil to Cups
750 grams of olive oil is enough for a full batch recipe or a scaled-up quantity. At 216g per cup, that's 3.47 cups.

750 grams of olive oil = 3.47 cups (3½ cups / 55.6 tbsp / 166.7 tsp)
Olive Oil has a density of approximately 216g per cup. Most liquid oils fall in the 216–224g per cup range. Source: USDA FoodData Central. This is the figure used everywhere on this page, including the tablespoon and teaspoon values, so the numbers stay consistent whether you're reading the summary line, the table, or the FAQ answers below.
| Grams | Cups | Fraction | Tablespoons | Teaspoons |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 650g | 3.01 | 3 | 48.1 | 144.4 |
| 700g | 3.24 | 3¼ | 51.9 | 155.6 |
| 750g | 3.47 | 3½ | 55.6 | 166.7 |
| 800g | 3.70 | 3⅔ | 59.3 | 177.8 |
| 850g | 3.94 | 3⅞ | 63.0 | 188.9 |
How the 750g Figure Is Calculated
750g divided by 216g (the weight of one cup of olive oil) equals 3.47 cups. Multiplying that by 16 gives 55.6 tablespoons, and by 48 gives 166.7 teaspoons, since one cup always equals 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons regardless of the ingredient.
Olive Oil is lighter than water, which weighs about 236g per cup. That's why 750g of olive oil takes up more volume (821ml) than the same weight of water would (752ml). For a side-by-side look at how other ingredients compare, see the 750 grams to cups page.
If Your Recipe Uses Metric or Imperial Cups
The 3.47 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 750g, that's 3¼ metric cups or 2⅞ imperial cups of olive 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 750g Up or Down
Doubling a recipe that calls for 750g of olive oil means weighing 1,500g, or measuring 6.94 cups if you're working by volume instead of weight. Halving it means 375g, or 1.74 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.
Olive Oil vs. Other Fats & Oils
Within fats & oils, density still varies by ingredient. At 750g, vegetable oil (218g per cup) measures 3½ cups, while butter (227g per cup) measures 3⅓ cups, compared to 3½ cups for olive oil. Swapping ingredients in a recipe by cup measurement alone, without adjusting for this difference, changes the actual weight used.
Where 750g of Olive Oil Fits in a Recipe
- Salad dressings typically use 60g to 90g (about ¼ to ⅓ cup) of olive oil.
- Focaccia dough often calls for 60g mixed into the dough plus more for the pan.
- Roasted vegetables usually need about 30g per baking sheet.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is 750 grams of olive oil in cups?+
750 grams of olive oil is 3.47 cups (3½ cups), or 55.6 tablespoons.
How do I measure 750 grams of olive oil without a scale?+
Use 3½ cups, spooned in and leveled off with a straight edge. If you only have tablespoons, use 55.6 tablespoons instead.
Why is olive oil's gram-to-cup ratio different from other ingredients?+
Olive Oil weighs 216g per cup because of its own density. Most liquid oils fall in the 216–224g per cup range.
Does a metric or imperial cup change this 750g conversion?+
Yes, slightly. 750g of olive oil is 3¼ metric cups or 2⅞ imperial cups, versus 3½ US cups, since each cup standard holds a different volume.
