playing soccer, or what you might call "football". I don't suggest measuring
anything in one. They have a tendency to leak.
A "teaspoon" in the American idiom is an old-timey way of saying "coffeespoon".
The only Americans that drink tea are Grandmothers and pretentious fops who only
drink tea if it has a name like Rooibos or Chai. Of course, those same
pretentious fops only drink coffee if it has a name like Maple Caramel
Vanillacinno Frappe. But, I digress.
An American cup(8 oz.) is about 240ml, 3/4 cup =80ml, 1/2cup= 120ml. And and
1/8tsp of dry yeast is around .625ml.
Good thing I served in Iraq with some of your boys or else I never would have
learned the metric system. I also would never have learned what a lorrie was.

Alright lads,im new to the EZ cap brewing and i'd like
to know if anyone can tell me how to measure a "cup"
of sugar? and how much is a 1/2 to 3/4 cup of sugar? a
'cup' aint a cup unless you know what a 'cup'is, also
how do you get an 1/8th of a teaspoon of yeast! that
is so hard to work out,i aint got a clue how to
measure these important factors without scales on the
initial brews,can anyone give me their views on these
points? can anyone tell me their weights of stuff like
yeast and sugar?,cheers chaps.from James.England
