    How many cups in a quart? How many cups are in a pint or gallon? These questions come up often when trying to adjust a recipe. This post covers many of the common kitchen conversions and includes two handy charts to help answer these questions.

    1 gallon = 4 quarts, 8 pints, 16 cups, 128 fluid ounces, 3.8 liters

    1 quart = 2 pints, 4 cups, 32 fluid ounces, .95 liters

    1 pint = 2 cups, 16 fluid ounces, 1/5 liter

    1 cup = 8 oz, 48 teaspoons, 16 tablespoons

    Have you ever had a recipe that needed adjusting to fit the servings needed? I often find that I’m scratching my head trying to remember the different kitchen measurements and how to convert them.

    I decided to make things easier and put together these simple kitchen conversion charts so that I could keep them in the kitchen to help me remember questions like “how many cups are in a pint or how many pints are in a quart”.

    ***Note: These conversions are U.S. liquid measurements.

    Measuring liquid ingredients vs dry ingredients

    When cooking and especially baking, you want to ensure the ingredient measurements are correct so that your dish comes out delicious.

    There are different types of measuring cups used when measuring dry ingredients and wet ingredients.

    Liquid measuring cups have a spout for easy pouring and extra room at the top so the liquid doesn’t spill out. These are used for things like water, milk, oil, and more.

    Dry measuring cups and spoons have a flat top to achieve the exact amount. They are used for ingredients like flour, sugar, and spices.

    Conclusion

    Hopefully this answered any kitchen conversion questions. Please let me know if you have any other questions in the comments.
