About these units
Cup (Metric) (cup)
A metric cup is defined as 250 mL, differing from both the US cup (236.588 mL) and the UK cup (284 mL). Used extensively in Australia, New Zealand, Canada (informally), and some European cooking contexts, the metric cup provides a clean, simple unit that aligns perfectly with decimal scaling. Its adoption reduces confusion in international recipe exchange and demonstrates the value of standardization for global culinary communication.
Stere (st (vol))
A stere is exactly 1 cubic meter, but with a particular association: it was defined specifically for measuring stacked firewood. Logs are irregular, so the stere measures the approximate space that a cubic meter of stacked wood occupies (including air gaps). The stere is still used in France and some other European regions as part of forestry traditions. Firewood sales often use the stere to maintain consistency with historical practices. The stere's survival shows how volume measurement often reflects cultural and economic tradition rather than purely scientific convenience, especially in long-standing industries like wood harvesting.
