    One pint of water or milk without extra dish-washing? Easy you just put it on the scale and pour one pound.

        The American pint is 473 mL.

        The Imperial pint used to be that much too, hence the old saying “A pint is a pound the world around”. Then the Imperial pint was increased by 25%, but Americans kept the old amount.
