What is a US Pint? History, origin and usage

This pint (written pt) is the US liquid pint, one eighth of the US gallon and a survival of the 18th-century English wine measure the United States retained. Britain replaced its equivalent with a larger imperial pint in 1824, splitting the two systems.

The pt turns up wherever Americans buy beer, cream, sour cream or a small tub of ice cream, and it is a standard pour size in US pubs. Two cups make a US pint.

Because the US and imperial pints differ in size, an American pint of beer is smaller than a British one even though both are called a pint. The US pint is sixteen fluid ounces; the imperial pint is twenty.

What is a US Fluid Ounce? History, origin and usage

This is again the US fluid ounce (written here as a US oz), one one-hundred-twenty-eighth of the US gallon and one eighth of a US cup, descended from the Queen Anne wine gallon. The name ounce is shared with the weight unit because the fluid ounce was historically the volume of an ounce-weight of water or wine.

The US fluid ounce measures beverage servings, spirit pours and recipe liquids throughout the United States, sitting just below the cup in the customary ladder. Drink labels and bar jiggers are graduated in fluid ounces.

Eight US fluid ounces make one US cup and sixteen make a US pint, the neat ratios that make American volume cooking work. The US fluid ounce is a volume measure and is slightly larger than the imperial fluid ounce used in Britain.

Accuracy and method

Every figure on this page — the formula, the worked examples, the conversion chart and the “convert to other units” tables — is computed from a single verified conversion factor (1 pt = 16 US fl oz), never copied from a hand-typed lookup table that could drift. That factor is derived from each unit’s definition in terms of a common base unit, and an automated check re-verifies all of the site’s factors on every update, so the numbers here stay correct over time. This matters for us pint-to-us fluid ounce conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.

Sources

• NIST Special Publication 811 — Guide for the Use of the SI — publishes the exact metric equivalents of the customary units. The inch, foot, yard and mile are defined exactly in metres by the 1959 international yard-and-pound agreement, so every imperial figure on this page is exact, not rounded.
• BIPM — The International System of Units (SI Brochure) — the defining document for the SI, published by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures. It fixes the base unit that this conversion resolves to, which is why the factor here can be exact rather than approximate.

Watch the system: a <strong>US</strong> gallon, quart, pint and fluid ounce are <strong>not</strong> the same size as the <strong>imperial (UK)</strong> ones — a US gallon is 3.785 L while an imperial gallon is 4.546 L, and a US fluid ounce (29.57 mL) is slightly larger than an imperial fluid ounce (28.41 mL). The units on this page are labelled US or Imperial so the result is unambiguous.
