Background
US customary liquid units are defined exactly: 1 US gallon = 3.785411784 L = 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups = 128 fluid ounces. The metric cup and the US cup differ slightly (250 mL against about 236.6 mL).
US and imperial (UK) gallons and fluid ounces are different sizes, so confirm which system a recipe or product label uses.
Common mistakes
- Using a UK recipe measure with US conversions. The imperial pint is 568 mL, the US pint 473 mL.
- Treating a fluid ounce, a volume, as an ounce of weight.
- Measuring dry ingredients by volume where weight is more accurate.
