How to convert ounces of all-purpose flour to cups

Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 6 oz = 170 g. One US cup of all-purpose flour weighs 125 g, so 170 ÷ 125 = 1.36 cups.

Spoon flour into the cup and level it with a knife. Scooping straight from the bag packs it down and can add 20–30% more.

Should I weigh all-purpose flour or measure it by volume?
