A quart

[coccinelle]

What is a quart in an american recipe. Quarter of a litre or quarter of a pint?

[redcrx]

quarter of a gallon

[Androcles]

Quarter of a Gallon = 1 litre approx

[redcrx]

about 2 pints

[coccinelle]

Thank you red and andro.

[Androcles]

You're welcome - it's nice to have somebody come back and say thanks!

32 fluid ounces (American pint is 16 ounces)

[coccinelle]

Thanks nautilus so that's just under a litre.

Handy hint...For future conversions, just enter the recipe amount in Google. See what happens if you enter 'quart'. Then see what happens when you enter 'US quart'. Same for '32 fl oz' - Google will do the conversion to metric for you.

Americans do not use metric measurements.

[coccinelle]

Thanks heathfield didn't think of just googling US quart.
magicmerlin, apparently google converts US measures to metric.
