Note:
This chart uses a "metric pint" definition of **500 milliliters (ml)**, which aligns with 2 Metric Cups (250ml each). This is often how liquids like milk or some beers are sized in metric countries for convenience.
It's important to distinguish this from the traditional **Imperial (UK) Pint**, which is approximately 568 ml.
A **US Liquid Pint** is approximately 473 ml.
Always check packaging or recipe origin if "pint" is specified without US/Imperial/Metric context, though "metric pint" commonly implies 500ml.
