US cups (cup) to US pints (pt) Conversion
US cups
The cup is a unit of volume used primarily in cooking and baking, equal to exactly 236.5882365 mL in the US customary system. The metric cup (250 mL) is used in Australia, Canada, and South Africa. In culinary education, cup measurements form the practical basis of recipe standardisation, though the variation between US, metric, and UK cups is a common source of international recipe confusion.
US pints
The US liquid pint is a unit of volume equal to exactly 0.473176473 litres (one eighth of a US gallon or 16 fluid ounces). It is the standard serving size for draught beer in the United States and is used for packaging cream, berries, and other food items. The US pint is significantly smaller than the UK imperial pint (0.568 L), a distinction that matters in international recipe conversions.
