Quarts in a cooking pot
Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

How do I calculate the number of quarts in a round cooking pot?

If the pot is a standard cylinder (sides are straight and parallel), the formula (using inches) is: (Diameter^2 * PI/4 * depth) / 57.75 in3/quart. This will give you U.S. quarts.
This assumes the the transition from the bottom and the sides is fairly sharp. If there is a long radius in this transition, as is the case with many cooking pots, or the sides are not parallel, this formula will not accurately work. The easiest way to determine the capacity of this pot would be to pour in known quantities of water until full.
