Understanding the Units
What is a Pint?
US and UK pints are very different sizes. A US pint is 473 ml while a UK (imperial) pint is 568 ml, making the UK pint about 20% larger. A "pint of milk" in a British recipe is significantly more than in an American recipe.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
