Coarse Cornmeal: Metric Cups (250ml) to Grams (g) & Ounces (oz) Conversion

Convert volumes of coarse cornmeal (e.g., polenta, grits) measured in metric cups (250ml) to its approximate weight in metric grams (g) and imperial/US ounces (oz).

Metric Cups (Coarse Cornmeal)	Grams (g) (approx.)	Ounces (oz) (approx. by weight)
1/4 Metric Cup	37-42 g	1.31-1.48 oz
1/3 Metric Cup	50-56 g	1.76-1.98 oz
1/2 Metric Cup	75-84 g	2.65-2.96 oz
1 Metric Cup (250ml)	150-168 g (often ~160g)	5.29-5.93 oz

Important Considerations for Coarse Cornmeal:

Coarse cornmeal is denser than fine cornmeal. The weight of 1 Metric Cup (250ml) is typically around **150-160 grams** (approximately 5.3-5.6 ounces).
Use the "spoon and level" method.
For consistent results, especially in recipes like polenta, measuring by weight is recommended.
