In short
One kilogram of rolled oats is 11.1111111111 us cup. Going the other way, one us cup is 0.09 kilogram. That works out at 2 kilogram = 22.2222222222 us cup and 4 = 44.4444444444. The figure comes from rolled oats weighing 90 g per US cup — a generic cups-to-grams converter assumes water and will give you the wrong answer here, because volume to weight depends entirely on what is in the cup.

About the Kilograms to Cups — Rolled Oats
Oats are the lightest common ingredient by cup — flakes trap a lot of air, so a cup weighs less than half what the same cup of sugar would. Steel-cut oats are a different matter entirely, weighing nearly twice as much per cup because they are cut rather than rolled. Quick oats are rolled thinner and pack a little denser, around 100 g per cup. The figure this page works from is 90 g per US cup, the spooned-and-levelled weight recorded by King Arthur Baking and the USDA food database. Converting kilogram to us cup for rolled oats, the amounts that come up most often are: 1/4 kilogram = 2.78 us cup; 1/2 kilogram = 5.56 us cup; 3/4 kilogram = 8.33 us cup; 1 kilogram = 11.1 us cup; 1 1/2 kilogram = 16.7 us cup; 2 kilogram = 22.2 us cup; 2 1/2 kilogram = 27.8 us cup; 3 kilogram = 33.3 us cup; 5 kilogram = 55.6 us cup.
What people use it for
- Following a US recipe with a kitchen scale instead of cup measures.
- Scaling a recipe up or down without compounding measuring error.
- Converting a European recipe written in grams into cups.

The maths behind it
This tool uses us cup = kilogram × 11.1111111111, derived from rolled oats weighing 90 g per US cup. Every intermediate value is shown on screen, so the result can be checked by hand.
Oats are the lightest common ingredient by cup — flakes trap a lot of air, so a cup weighs less than half what the same cup of sugar would. Steel-cut oats are a different matter entirely, weighing nearly twice as much per cup because they are cut rather than rolled.
Where this tool stops
Volume-to-weight conversion is inherently approximate. Humidity, brand, how finely something is milled and how long it has sat in the cupboard all shift the figure by a few per cent.
Frequently asked questions
Can I swap rolled oats for steel-cut in a recipe?
Not by volume, and rarely at all. Steel-cut weigh roughly 180 g per cup against 90 g for rolled, and they need far more liquid and cooking time. Baked goods that call for rolled oats will not work with steel-cut.
Why does a cup of rolled oats not weigh the same as a cup of water?
Because a cup measures volume and a scale measures weight, and the two only agree for water. Rolled oats has its own density — 90 g per US cup — so any generic volume converter gives the wrong answer here.
How much does the way I fill the cup matter?
A noticeable amount, because rolled oats are flat, light and full of air gaps. A cup shaken down can hold 10–15% more than one filled loosely and left alone, against the 90 g used here. Oats are also the ingredient where "cup" varies most between brands, since flake thickness differs.
Is a US cup the same as a UK or metric cup?
No. A US cup is 236.6 ml, a metric cup is 250 ml and an old UK cup is 284 ml. These pages use the US cup, because that is what US recipes mean.
