Does crystal size affect how much Oats groats, whole fits in a cup?

Yes — finer grains pack tighter and add 5–10 % more weight per cup. The table uses standard granulation.

Can I swap Oats groats, whole for a different granulation without changing the gram count?

By weight the conversion is unchanged — a gram is a gram. Volume readings do shift, so match granulation if a recipe specifies cups.

Whole oat groats are dense, intact kernels (~0.74 g/mL). Weighing keeps water ratios precise for porridge or pilaf without gummy results.
