2/3 Cup of Water in Grams
2/3 cup of water weighs 160 grams (about 5.6 oz), based on 240 g per US cup (1 US cup = 240 ml). That's the same as 10.7 tablespoons of water. When a recipe's outcome depends on accuracy — especially baking — weigh it instead of measuring by cup.
Few measuring sets include a 2/3 cup, so this is normally 2 × 1/3 cup (80 g each). Without a 1/3 measure either, 10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons is exact.

No 2/3 cup measure? Use spoons

Halving and doubling 2/3 cup
Scaling a recipe is the usual reason this conversion comes up, and grams scale cleanly where cup fractions do not:
| Recipe | Cups | Grams | Spoons |
|---|---|---|---|
| Half | ⅓ cup | 80 g | 5 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon |
| As written | ⅔ cup | 160 g | 10 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons |
| Double | 1 ⅓ cups | 320 g | 21 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon |
