About these units
Minim (UK) (minim (UK))
The UK minim is one of the smallest traditional volume units, equal to 1/60 of a dram, or roughly 0.059 milliliters. Introduced in the early 19th century to replace the inconsistent "drop," the minim allowed physicians and pharmacists to dose potent liquid medicines more reliably. Before modern syringes and droppers, apothecaries needed a precise micro-unit that could be measured using graduated glassware. The minim served this purpose exceptionally well and was foundational in early medical standardization. Although no longer used in contemporary medicine, it remains historically important, especially in pharmacology, toxicology, and the study of pre-modern medical practice.
Gill (UK) (gi (UK))
A UK gill equals 142 mL, traditionally used in measuring spirits, whiskey, beer, and cooking ingredients. The gill was once a common pub measure, with quarter-gill and half-gill servings used before modern standardized alcohol units replaced them. While now mostly obsolete, the gill is still recognized in historical cocktail recipes, British literature, and the study of older trade practices.
