Metric and US measures

One liter is 1,000 milliliters and about 0.264 US gallons. A US gallon is 3.785 liters, split into 4 quarts, 8 pints or 16 cups. Note that these are US liquid measures; UK imperial pints and gallons are larger.

1 US gallon in liters

1 × 3.785 = 3.785 liters

Watch the gallon

The biggest trap is the gallon: a US gallon is 3.785 liters but an imperial gallon is 4.546. This tool uses US liquid units throughout, so if you are working from a UK recipe or fuel figure, keep that in mind. Everything runs through the liter as a base.
