How many ounces in one pound of coffee?

Answer 1

Approximately 3.92 cups.

A standard "1 lb can of coffee" has 13. oz of coffee. Another answer in WikiAnswers indicates that a 3 lb coffee can (39 ozs) has 169.56 cubic inches of volume, which equates to 11.744 cups. Divide by 3 for 3.92 cups.

Answer 2

I measured an old one pound coffee can. The diameter is 3 inches across by 5 1/2 inches tall. It held 4 cups of water.

Using the area of a cylinder

I got 38.88225 inches.
