 Liter
to Gallon / Quart / Pint / Cup / Ounce Conversions
- Accurate measurement is necessary to insure success in cooking.
It is best secured by using gallon, quart, and pint measures, the half-pint
cup and tablespoons and teaspoons of standard size. Measuring cups
hold one half pint (milk measure) and may be bought in tin, enameled, and
glassware, with handle. Some are divided on one side into quarters
and on the other into thirds; or you may find one cup in quarters and another
in thirds. They should supersede entirely the use of tea cups, blue
cups, and tumblers, which were called for in nearly all old time recipes.
Tablespoons of the usual size are three inches long and one and three fourths
inches wide. Teaspoons should measure two inches long and one and
one fourth inches wide. Half - teaspoons should be in every kitchen;
they are like a teaspoon with the bowl cut through the middle from tip
to handle, with an upright edge forming a back on the line of division.
They are convenient, especially in measuring a half teaspoon of liquid. |

 Unpresumptuous
Agnostic Conversions! - Isn't it frustrating when someone tells you that
it's 30° Celsius, and you don't know have a clue to what that means,
because your brain is in Fahrenheit? Or,
you're in a dynamite clothing store in Milan, and you don't know what the
sizes are because everything is in Italian sizes, which differ from the
size designation you're accustomed to. We've got an index here with 16
pages of conversion engines. They are simple web engines that will
convert Metric to Imperial and also do other types of conversions.
There is another type of conversion of course; you know, being converted
from being a Phrenologist to a Rosicrucianism, or a Republican to a Zen
Monk. We are convinced that there is nothing more obscene than the
lust to convert. Hence; in creating this page of 16 conversion engines,
we designed them all to be agnostic and unpresumptuous, with respect for
your sovereignty and dignity in mind. - More
