150 Grams of Butter to Cups

Direct Kitchen Answer

150 grams of Butter (Unsalted or Salted) equals ⅔ cup, or exactly 10⅝ tablespoons (1.32 US butter sticks).

For reliable recipe results, that equals 10.6 tablespoons or 31.7 teaspoons in US Customary Cup standards.

Density Note: Calibrated for Solid stick form at cool room temperature (65°F / 18°C) at a reference density of 227g per cup (0.960 g/mL).

Direct Answer

150 grams of Butter (Unsalted or Salted) = 2/3 cups

Decimal value: 0.66 cups • Practical kitchen fraction: 2/3 cups

Tablespoons 10.6 tbsp
Teaspoons 31.7 tsp
Grams per Cup 227g / cup
Bulk Density 0.960 g/mL
Calibrated Measurement Condition: Solid stick form at cool room temperature (65°F / 18°C)
Exact Formula

Calculation & Mathematical Derivation

To convert 150 grams of Butter (Unsalted or Salted) into US Customary measuring cups (236.6 mL):

Cups = Weight in Grams ÷ Grams per Cup (Bulk Density)
Cups = 150g ÷ 227g/cup = 0.66 cups (kitchen fraction: 2/3 cups)
Tablespoons = 150g ÷ 14.19g/tbsp = 10.6 tablespoons

This calculation is calibrated specifically for Solid stick form at cool room temperature (65°F / 18°C) under standard kitchen conditions (sourced from USDA FoodData Central (FDC ID 173410)).

Technique Note: 1 stick of butter = 1/2 cup = 8 tablespoons = 113.4g (4 oz). 2 sticks = 1 cup = 226.8g (~227g).
