Enter grams or pints and select an ingredient density to convert between mass and volume in US or Imperial units.
Assumptions Assumptions
- Conversions are mass-to-volume (and vice versa) and require a density in g/mL.
- Preset densities are typical values at room temperature; real-world results vary with temperature and brand.
- Unit standards used: US pint = 473.176473 mL; Imperial pint = 568.26125 mL; US fl oz = 29.5735295625 mL; 1 lb = 453.59237 g.
- Outputs are rounded to 4 decimal places; enter exactly one of mass or volume to compute the other.
When to Use This Calculator
- Converting package weights (grams, ounces) to recipe volumes (US or Imperial pints).
- Standardizing recipes across metric and US/Imperial kitchens.
- Homebrewing and beverage calculations where density matters.
Input Definitions
- Ingredient (density) โ choose a preset or โCustomโ to enter your own density in g/mL.
- Mass โ enter grams, kilograms, pounds, or ounces.
- Volume โ choose US pint, Imperial pint, mL, L, or US fl oz.
- Formulas โ pints = grams รท (density ร mL_per_pint); grams = pints ร mL_per_pint ร density.
Grams to Pints Formula
The following formulas convert grams to pints and back, using density to bridge mass and volume; US and Imperial pint sizes are shown with a general form in milliliters.
\mathrm{pints} = \frac{\mathrm{grams}}{\rho\,(\mathrm{g/mL}) \times V_{\mathrm{pint}}\,(\mathrm{mL})}- US pint = 473.176473 mL
- Imperial pint = 568.26125 mL
- US fluid ounce = 29.5735295625 mL
- Density (ฯ) in g/mL links mass and volume: grams = mL ร ฯ; mL = grams รท ฯ.

How do you convert grams to pints? Divide grams by the product of density (g/mL) and the pint size in mL: pints = grams รท (ฯ ร mL_per_pint); use 473.176473 for US pints or 568.26125 for Imperial pints.
How do you convert pints to grams? Multiply pints by the pint size in mL and by density: grams = pints ร mL_per_pint ร ฯ.
Example Problem
Convert 1000 g of water to US pints.
Use the US formula: pints = grams รท (ฯ ร 473.176473).
pints = 1000 รท (1.000 ร 473.176473) = 2.113 pints (US)
