About these units

Nebuchadnezzar (nebuch)

Cooking & barCurrent unit

15 liters, twenty standard wine bottles.

Nebuchadnezzar, the Babylonian king of the Old Testament, gives his name to a 15 liter bottle, equal to twenty standard 750 mL bottles. Wikipedia places it above the Balthazar, also called Belshazzar, at 12 liters, and below the Melchior at 18 liters.

The name belongs to the playful series of biblical labels used mainly for Champagne, though the sources consulted do not say when or by whom it was first applied. Because big bottles are hard to riddle, producers commonly fill them by transfer from smaller ones, which some drinkers consider a drawback. The size is equivalent to roughly 507 US fluid ounces, or about 3.3 US gallons.

1 nebuchadnezzar = 15 liters (exactly).

Milliliter (mL)

Metric (SI)Current unit

One thousandth of a liter, or exactly 1 cubic centimeter. Used for medicine, cooking and small containers.

Milliliters inherit everything from the liter, since the prefix simply means one thousandth. Because the liter is a cubic decimeter, a milliliter works out to exactly one cubic centimeter, a coincidence the metric system built in on purpose so that volume, length and mass interlock. One milliliter of water has a mass of about one gram, so a dosing syringe, a kitchen scale and a measuring jug can all be checked against one another.

Today milliliters dominate wherever small amounts must be measured precisely: medicine, flavorings, perfume, shampoo and the fine print on drink labels. Spelling is a mild regional split, with uppercase mL preferred in the United States, Canada and Australia and lowercase ml common in the UK and Europe. For scale, a US teaspoon is just under 5 mL, a US tablespoon is about 14.8 mL, and the US nutrition-label cup is exactly 240 mL, so one such cup is 240 of these tiny units.

1 milliliter = 0.001 liters (exactly).
