Grams to Ounces Converter

Guide to Converting Grams (g) to Ounces (oz)

Converting grams (g) to ounces (oz)—and ounces to grams—is an essential calculation in culinary baking, coffee roasting, nutritional portion tracking, postal shipping, and precious metal weighing.

While international recipes and food packaging use metric grams for precise weight measurements, American recipes and postal guidelines rely on avoirdupois ounces. Online offers an instant Grams to Ounces converter operating 100% inside your browser.

Understanding Avoirdupois vs Troy Ounces

When converting grams to ounces, it is important to distinguish between standard food ounces and precious metal troy ounces:

• Avoirdupois Ounce (oz): The standard unit used for food, postal packages, and consumer goods. Defined as 1/16 of a pound (1 oz = 28.349523125 grams).
• Troy Ounce (ozt): Used strictly for weighing precious metals (gold, silver, platinum). Defined as 1/12 of a troy pound (1 ozt = 31.1034768 grams).
• Grams to Avoirdupois Ounces Formula: Ounces (oz) = Grams (g) / 28.349523 ≈ Grams × 0.035274.
• Ounces to Grams Formula: Grams (g) = Ounces (oz) × 28.349523.
