About Firkins
A firkin (fir) ≈ 34.07 L (9 US gallons) - the most common cask for British real-ale delivery (9 imperial gallons = 40.91 L). A busy pub cellar cycles through several firkins per week. Craft breweries stage 'firkin tappings' of limited experimental ales. The name comes from Middle Dutch 'vierdekijn' (little fourth), as a firkin was one quarter of a barrel. 1 fir = 9 US gal ≈ 34.07 L.
About Cubic Centimeters
A cubic centimeter (cm³), also written cc, is the volume of a cube with sides of one centimetre = exactly 1 mL. 'cc' is the preferred notation in medicine, mechanical engineering, and automotive contexts. Engine displacement is measured in cc (a 1,000 cc motorcycle engine has 1 L displacement); syringe dosages are labelled in cc. A standard sugar cube ≈1 cm³. 1 cm³ = 1 mL.
