About US pints per minute
The US pint per minute (pt/min) equals 3.785411784×10⁻³/8/60 ≈ 7.886×10⁻⁶ m³/s, a unit encountered in US home-brewing, small-batch winery transfers, and consumer-grade pump ratings. A standard kitchen faucet running at 2 US gal/min produces 16 pt/min; a small submersible pond pump rated 50 gal/h delivers ≈27 pt/min. 1 US pt/min ≈ 7.886×10⁻⁶ m³/s.
About UK fluid ounces per second
The UK (imperial) fluid ounce per second (fl oz/s) equals 4.54609×10⁻³/160 ≈ 2.841×10⁻⁵ m³/s, slightly larger than its US counterpart. It appears in pre-metric British food-manufacturing and brewing standards. A traditional UK draught-beer tap dispenses 1 pint (20 fl oz) in about 2 seconds, equating to ≈10 UK fl oz/s. 1 UK fl oz/s ≈ 2.841×10⁻⁵ m³/s ≈ 0.9608 US fl oz/s.
