How to convert ounces of brown sugar to cups
Weight ounces first become grams (1 oz = 28.35 g), so 1 oz = 28 g. One US cup of brown sugar weighs 220 g, so 28 ÷ 220 = 0.13 cups.
This is for brown sugar packed firmly into the cup, which is what nearly every recipe means. Loosely spooned brown sugar is closer to 150 g per cup.

Should I weigh brown sugar or measure it by volume?
