Quart to Ounce Converter

Our quart to ounce converter uses the precise formula: 1 US liquid quart = 32 US fluid ounces – essential for cooking, baking, and beverage measurements.

1 US qt = 32 US fl oz | 1 US fl oz = 0.03125 US qt (for liquid measurements only)

Note: This tool uses US liquid measurements. UK/imperial quarts and ounces differ (1 UK qt = 40 UK fl oz).

Quart to Ounce Conversion Guide

Understand the relationship between quarts and ounces for accurate kitchen measurements and recipe scaling.

Conversion Formula & Calculation

Quart to Ounce Formula (US Liquid):

Basic Conversion:

Formula: fluid ounces = quarts × 32

This comes from: 1 US liquid quart = 32 US fluid ounces

Ounce to Quart Formula (US Liquid):

Reverse Conversion:

Formula: quarts = fluid ounces ÷ 32

Or: quarts = fluid ounces × 0.03125

Example Calculations:

1. Convert 1.5 quarts to ounces:

fluid ounces = 1.5 × 32 = 48 fl oz

2. Convert 16 ounces to quarts:

quarts = 16 ÷ 32 = 0.5 qt

Important Note: US vs UK Measurements

This converter uses US liquid measurements. UK/imperial units differ significantly:

  • 1 UK imperial quart = 40 UK imperial fluid ounces
  • 1 UK imperial fluid ounce ≈ 0.96 US fluid ounces
  • 1 US liquid quart ≈ 0.8327 UK imperial quarts

Always check recipe origin (US vs UK) to avoid measurement errors!

Understanding These Volume Units

US Liquid Quart (qt):

  • A unit of liquid volume in the US customary system
  • Equal to 2 US liquid pints or 4 US liquid cups
  • Approximately 0.946 liters (metric equivalent)
  • Commonly used for:
    • Large beverage containers (milk, juice)
    • Soup and stock batches
    • Liquid ingredients in large recipes
    • Cleaning products and detergents
  • Not to be confused with dry quarts (used for dry ingredients like grains)

US Fluid Ounce (fl oz):

  • A unit of liquid volume in the US customary system
  • Equal to 1/16 of a US liquid pint or 1/8 of a US liquid cup
  • Approximately 29.57 milliliters (metric equivalent)
  • Commonly used for:
    • Small liquid measurements in recipes
    • Beverage servings (water, soda, alcohol)
    • Cooking oils and vinegars
    • Condiments and sauces
    • Medication dosages (liquid)
  • Not to be confused with avoirdupois ounces (used for weight)

Quart to Ounce Conversion Table (US Liquid)

Quick reference for common quart to ounce conversions in cooking and baking.

US Quarts (qt) US Fluid Ounces (fl oz) Common Kitchen Context
0.125 (1/8) 4 1/2 cup of liquid
0.25 (1/4) 8 1 cup of liquid
0.5 (1/2) 16 2 cups (1 pint) of liquid
0.75 (3/4) 24 3 cups of liquid
1 32 1 standard quart (e.g., milk carton)
1.5 48 1.5 quarts (large recipe batch)
2 64 2 quarts (half-gallon) of liquid
3 96 3 quarts (large soup pot)
4 128 1 gallon of liquid
0.03125 1 1 fluid ounce (small measurement)

Note: For dry ingredients, use dry volume units (dry quarts, dry pints) which have different conversions. This table is for liquid measurements only. When scaling recipes, always maintain consistent unit types (US vs metric vs imperial).

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about quart to ounce conversion and liquid measurements.

The 32-ounce quart is a definition from the US customary system of measurements, established in the late 18th century. The system was designed with practical divisions in mind:

  • 1 gallon = 4 quarts
  • 1 quart = 2 pints
  • 1 pint = 2 cups
  • 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces

Using these divisions: 1 quart = 2 pints = 4 cups = 4 × 8 ounces = 32 ounces. This standardized system made it easier for cooks, bakers, and manufacturers to create consistent measurements across the United States.

The key difference is what they measure:

Fluid Ounces (fl oz):
  • Measure volume (how much space a liquid takes)
  • Used for liquids (water, milk, oil, juice)
  • US fluid oz ≈ 29.57 mL
  • UK fluid oz ≈ 28.41 mL
  • Part of volume measurement systems
Avoirdupois Ounces (oz):
  • Measure weight (how heavy something is)
  • Used for solids (flour, sugar, meat, produce)
  • 1 oz ≈ 28.35 grams
  • 16 oz = 1 pound
  • Part of weight measurement systems

This is why a "fluid ounce" of water doesn't weigh exactly 1 ounce (it weighs about 1.043 ounces). Always use fluid ounces for liquids and regular ounces for solids in recipes.

The difference between US and UK (imperial) volume units dates back to the 19th century, when the two countries developed separate measurement standards after American independence.

Key differences:

  • Quarts: 1 US liquid quart ≈ 0.946 liters; 1 UK imperial quart ≈ 1.137 liters
  • Ounces: 1 US fluid ounce ≈ 29.57 mL; 1 UK fluid ounce ≈ 28.41 mL
  • Conversion ratio: 1 US qt = 32 US fl oz; 1 UK qt = 40 UK fl oz

This means a UK quart is about 20% larger than a US quart. When following recipes from other countries, always check which measurement system is used to avoid over/under-measuring ingredients.

Converting quarts to ounces is most common in kitchen and beverage contexts:

  • Recipe scaling: Adjusting large-batch recipes (e.g., restaurant to home kitchen)
  • Ingredient substitution: Using different container sizes (e.g., quart milk vs ounce measuring cup)
  • Beverage preparation: Mixing drinks from bulk containers (e.g., quart juice to individual servings)
  • Canning and preserving: Converting between jar sizes and recipe quantities
  • Nutrition tracking: Calculating fluid intake from large containers
  • International recipes: Adapting US recipes to metric measurements (via ounces)
  • Cost comparison: Determining value per ounce across different container sizes

To convert US liquid quarts to metric units (milliliters or liters), use these conversions:

  1. Quarts to liters: Multiply quarts by 0.946353 (1 US qt ≈ 0.946 L)
  2. Quarts to milliliters: Multiply quarts by 946.353 (1 US qt ≈ 946.35 mL)

Examples:

  • 1 quart to liters: 1 × 0.946353 = 0.946 L
  • 2.5 quarts to milliliters: 2.5 × 946.353 = 2365.88 mL

For UK imperial quarts, use: 1 UK qt ≈ 1.13652 L or 1136.52 mL. These conversions are useful when working with international recipes that use metric measurements.
