What is a Pound?
The abbreviation "lb" comes from the Latin word "libra." One pound equals exactly 453.59237 grams. For rough mental math, 1 pound is slightly less than half a kilogram.
About 14.54 lb, based on maple syrup having a density of 312g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of pints by 624 (grams per pint for maple syrup), then divide by 453.592 to convert grams to pounds. For 10.57 pints: 10.57 × 624 = 6,595.68g, then 6,595.68 ÷ 453.592 = 14.54 lb.
Weighing maple syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring cup first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of maple syrup changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 14.54 lb × 453.592 = 6,595.68g, then 6,595.68g ÷ 624 = 10.57 pints. Or use the Pounds to Pints converter.
