SponsoredThis calculator converts a volume in US pints to liters using the exact factor: multiply the pint value by 0.473176473. One US pint is defined as exactly 473.176473 mL, so this factor carries no rounding at all.
A pint container of a liquid ingredient, beer, or another beverage is common in the US, and converting it into liters makes it possible to compare against a metric-labeled product. This comes up in homebrewing, cooking, and comparing US and international serving sizes.
For the reverse direction, converting liters back into pints, or converting a pint value into quarts instead, see the related converters below.

The Pints to Liters Formula
To convert pints to liters, multiply the pint value by 0.473176473. For example, 4 pints times 0.473176473 equals approximately 1.89 liters.
To go the other way, use the Liters to Pints converter instead, which divides by the same factor for you. For a pint value that needs to become quarts, see the Pints to Quarts converter below.
A Common Reference Point: a Homebrew Batch
A 40-pint (5-gallon) homebrew batch converts to approximately 18.93 liters, a figure homebrewers converting between US and metric equipment specifications often need.
A Note on the UK Pint
This calculator uses the US pint. A UK imperial pint is a different, larger unit, about 568.26 mL, so a UK pint would need a different conversion factor than the one used here.
To find what a volume weighs, the Pints to Pounds Converter converts pints to pounds for water, milk, flour, sugar, honey, or butter. The Liters to Pounds Converter does the same starting from liters. To double a recipe or cut it down first, the Recipe Scaling Calculator adjusts any ingredient amount for a new number of servings.
