Frequently Asked Questions

About Pint (US) and Millilitre

Pint (US)

The US liquid pint is defined as exactly 473.176 mL (16 US fl oz = 2 US cups). The UK Imperial pint (568.26 mL = 20 UK fl oz) is 20% larger — a major difference for beer servings and cooking.

US pints are used for ice cream (1 pint = 2 cups), cream, and some beverages. Draft beer in the US is served in 16 fl oz pints; in the UK in 20 fl oz pints — which is why a UK pint of beer is substantially larger.

Interesting fact: The 20% difference between US and Imperial pints traces to the 1824 Weights and Measures Act, which redefined the Imperial gallon as the volume of 10 pounds of water at 62°F. The US gallon was inherited from the older Queen Anne wine gallon (1707), creating two incompatible systems.

Millilitre

The millilitre (mL) is one-thousandth of a litre and the SI unit of liquid volume most commonly used in cooking, medicine, and food labelling. 1 mL of water at 4°C weighs exactly 1 gram.

mL is universal in food nutrition labels, liquid medicine dosing, and scientific cooking (molecular gastronomy). 1 US teaspoon ≈ 5 mL; 1 tablespoon ≈ 15 mL; 1 US cup ≈ 237 mL; 1 US fl oz ≈ 30 mL.

Interesting fact: The 1 mL = 1 g (for water) relationship makes the metric system exceptionally convenient for baking: 100 mL of water = 100 g = the same cup-to-gram conversion for any liquid with water-like density.

About Pint (US) to Millilitre Conversion

The US cup chain: 1 cup = 16 tbsp = 48 tsp = 8 fl oz = 236.6 ml = ½ pint. Note: metric cups (Australia) = 250 ml; UK tablespoon = 17.76 ml vs US 14.79 ml. Always check which measurement system a recipe uses.
