That's the imperial quart. The US quart is 32 fl. oz.
And, of course, the US fl. oz is slightly different from the imperial one. And neither is 1 (weight) oz of water (but at least the weight ozes are the same in US and imperial...).

- saalweachter 2y agoThe imperial fl. oz is 1 weight oz, at least within the margin of error of 1824. It's a shame that everyone broke the "a pint is a pound, the whole world 'round" relationship. The US standardized its pint too big, the UK switched from a 16 to 20 oz pint.
