How to Convert teaspoons Coconut Oil to ounces Coconut Oil

Formula

To convert teaspoons Coconut Oil (teaspoons) to ounces Coconut Oil (ounces): Multiply teaspoons by 0.9 (density of Coconut Oil)

About teaspoons Coconut Oil (teaspoons)

Teaspoons of Coconut Oil. Measured by US teaspoon (= 5 mL = 1/3 US tablespoon = 1/48 US cup per FDA 21 CFR 101.9). The teaspoon is the standard US measure for small dry ingredients (salt, sugar, baking powder, spices) + small liquid amounts (vanilla extract, lemon juice). Common multiples: 1/4 tsp (1.25 mL), 1/2 tsp (2.5 mL), 1 tsp (5 mL). 'Heaping teaspoon' is informally ~50% more than level (can vary widely). Most US measuring-spoon sets include 1/4, 1/2, 1, and 1 tablespoon (= 3 tsp) increments. Coconut oil is the saturated fat extracted from the meat (copra) of mature coconut palms (Cocos nucifera). Solid at room temperature below ~24°C (75°F) — melts to liquid above that threshold. Density ~0.900 g/mL when liquid at 30°C+; solid form is ~0.92 g/mL but density measurements traditionally use the liquid state. Predominantly saturated (~92% saturated fatty acids, mostly lauric acid C12:0 = 50%, myristic C14:0 = 18%, palmitic C16:0 = 8%). Virgin (unrefined, expeller-pressed) vs Refined (RBD — refined, bleached, deodorized) differ in flavor + smoke point: virgin coconut oil has distinct coconut aroma + smoke point ~175°C; refined is neutral-flavored + ~232°C. Heavily used in: Asian/Indian/Southeast Asian cooking (Thai curries, Indian dahls), vegan baking (replaces butter at 1:1 by weight in many recipes), Bulletproof Coffee + MCT-oil supplementation. Brands: Spectrum Organic, Nutiva, Dr. Bronner's, La Tourangelle. Long shelf life ~24 months due to high saturation. Density: 0.900 g/mL (used to convert volume measurements to mass).

About ounces Coconut Oil (ounces)

Ounces of Coconut Oil. Measured by US avoirdupois ounce (= 28.349523125 g exactly per NIST SP 811 — distinct from fluid ounce which is a volume unit). Mass-ounce measurement is preferred in US butcher/bakery/professional contexts where precision matters but the recipe uses imperial customary units. Common US baking ingredient packages list both ounces (mass) + grams: a stick of butter = 4 oz = 113 g; a 'pound' of flour = 16 oz = 454 g. CRITICAL: do NOT confuse with the troy ounce (~31.1 g — used only for precious metals) or the fluid ounce (volume unit = 29.57 mL).
