Weights and Measures

Liquid = glass (right)
dry = metal (left)

The two fun things everyone likes to discuss out in the open: weight and measurements.

Oh please, I'm talking about weights and measures of ingredients not you. Phew! So put down that tape measure, get off that scale and wipe the sweat from your brow. My other site is about YOUR weight and measurements.

I cannot tell you how many times I have referenced the little chart below. I hope this quick reference will be just as helpful to you.

1 Gallon = 128 fluid ounces = 4 quarts
1 Quart = 32 fluid ounces = 2 pints
1 Pint = 16 fluid ounces = 2 cups (see what I am doing here...)
1 Cup = 8 fluid ounces = 16 tablespoons
2 Tablespoons = 1 fluid once
1 Tablespoon = 3 teaspoons
Note: Volume Ounces are Fluid Ounces
