About these units
Gill (US) (gi)
The US gill equals 118.294 mL, representing one-quarter of a US pint. Historically used in measuring alcoholic beverages, the gill once played a significant role in tavern regulations, distilling, and bartending. Its usage declined sharply after Prohibition and continued to fade as ounces and milliliters became preferred for drink recipes and consumer packaging. However, some old cocktail manuals still specify gills, and certain traditional American spirits were originally bottled in gill-based volumes. The gill illustrates the rich historical diversity of volumetric units in American culinary and beverage culture.
Dekastere (dekastere)
The dekastere, equal to 10 steres or 10 cubic meters, is primarily used in forestry for measuring stacked firewood or lumber. In European countries like France, where the stere is still recognized, the dekastere is practical for describing commercial quantities of timber. Many forestry management plans and commercial firewood suppliers use the dekastere to track production and sales. Its size strikes a balance between comprehensibility and practicality, making it useful for both commercial and personal-scale timber transactions.
