About these units
Barrel (UK) (bbl (UK))
The UK barrel also varies by context but is commonly set at 36 imperial gallons, or about 163.66 liters. Used in British breweries, distilleries, and older trade systems, the UK barrel historically held ale, beer, and spirits. Barrel sizes were not only a reflection of trade standardization but also taxation. Governments often taxed based on container size, prompting industries to standardize capacities for legal and economic stability. Though less prevalent today due to metrication, the UK barrel remains in use in traditional breweries and historical references. It is an enduring symbol of Britain's long brewing heritage and the complex history of imperial trade.
Taza (Spanish) (taza)
A taza is a Spanish cup commonly defined as 250 mL, though older regional variations ranged between 200 and 300 mL. Used extensively in Spanish and Latin American cooking, baking, and beverage preparation, the taza serves a role similar to the US or metric cup. Because many Spanish recipes rely on the taza, understanding its modern standardized value helps ensure accurate international recipe translation. It also reflects how culinary practices shape measurement conventions.
