A lot of food quality, consistency, and cost issues are due the fact that cooks often do not know how, or forget to do the proper conversions when cutting a recipe to a smaller batch, or increasing a recipe to a large batch. Believe it or not, they also forget that the is a big difference in ounces by weight and ounces by volume. Here are some basic measurement conversions.
1 T. = 3 t.
1 C. = 16 T.
2 C. = 1 PINT
4 C. = 1 QT.
2 PINTS = 1 QT.
4 QT = 1 GALLON
1 GAL. = 128 FLUID OZ.
8 FLUID OZ. = 1C.
1C. = .24 LITER
1PINT = .47 LITER
1QT. = .97 LITER
1 GAL. = 3.8 LITERS
