How many grams is 2 1/2 cups of butter?

2 1/2 cups of butter is 567 grams, based on 227 g per level US cup.

Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). Using a metric cup, 2 1/2 cups of butter would be 599 g.

Should I weigh butter or measure it by volume?
