How many grams is 8 cups of cocoa powder?

One US cup (236.6 ml) of cocoa powder weighs 86 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169593 “Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened”, portion “1 cup” = 86 grams.

(six hundred eighty-eight grams)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169593 “Cocoa, dry powder, unsweetened”, portion “1 cup” = 86 grams. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a cup weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.
