No, I have a guide on paper and decided other people could use it. Handy though - I always get confused.

Oops, probably should have mentioned that the guide uses British Imperial measurements (forgot the Americans like to be difficult and change things :lol:). Here are the differences:

 

Imperial Measurement Equivalent (British) (American)

_____1 fl oz___________28.41ml_______29.57ml

_____1 pint_____________568ml_____ 473ml* 551ml*

_____1 quart___________ 1.136l_____946ml* 1.101l*

_____1 gallon__________ 4.546l__________3.785l


*Americans have two types of pints and quarts - one for "liquid" and one for "dry", liquid is always shown on the left. If in doubt use the "liquid" measurement as that is most commonly used. British measurements remain unaffected by this and are the same for both "liquid" and "dry".

 

Enjoy!
