Dry Pint Basket

A Dry Pint Basket is a measurement of volume, used mostly for fruits and vegetables.

When a dry pint is meant and it’s necessary to distinguish it from a liquid pint, usually “dry” will be stated.

It does not measure weight.

  • 1 dry pint = 1 ½ cups (when referring to fruit around the size of blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc)
  • 1 dry pint = 550 ml
  • 1 dry pint = 33.6 cubic inches = 550 cubic cm

A North American 2 cup measuring cup will measure a dry pint out.
