On the bottle of tomato food concentrate it says 2/3 capfuls to 2 gallons of water - in old money that is.............

or for the young ones out there      20 ml of concentrate to 9 litres of water

My  bottle only holds 6 pints, I thought half a capful......... but I don't trust myself (on account of me being thick) 


Thanks xx

Erm 

Let's see.  Are there 8 pints in a gallon?  If so, that's 2-3 capfuls per 16 pints.

6 into 16 is a little over 2.5

So, to keep the proportions the same, divide both 2-3 and 16 by 2.5

Which to my no-sleep brain makes it about a capful for 6 pints.

Mind you, if there aren't 8 pints in a gallon the above is totally wrong!
