What is a dessertspoon (US)?

A dessertspoon (US) is an informal culinary volume unit usually equal to 2 US teaspoons, roughly 9.86 milliliters, used mainly in home cooking recipes.

What is the stere [st] used for?

The stere is a metric volume unit equal to one cubic meter, commonly used to measure stacked firewood, timber, and other bulk materials.

Can I use this conversion for precise scientific measurements?

No, since the dessertspoon is informal and stere measures stacked volume including air gaps, this conversion is best suited for approximate conversions, not precise scientific use.

Common Use Cases

Scaling cooking recipe measurements from US informal units to metric volumes
Estimating the volume of stacked firewood for sales and invoicing
Measuring bulk timber and woodfuel volumes in forestry and wood processing
Calculating stacked bulk material volumes for transport or storage planning

Tips & Best Practices

Understand that dessertspoon (US) is an informal unit and may vary slightly
Use the tool for approximate conversions in settings where precise solid volume is not required
Consider the difference between stacked volume measured by stere and actual solid volume due to air spaces
Verify large-scale volume conversions for commercial or logistical use with additional measurements

Limitations

Dessertspoon (US) is a non-standardized informal measurement causing potential slight inaccuracies
Stere measures the volume of stacked material including air gaps, not just the solid content
Conversions should be interpreted carefully when precise volume accuracy is necessary
