About Hectoliter (hl)
A hectoliter (hL) is 100 liters, the standard unit of volume in the brewing, winemaking, and petroleum industries. Beer production is measured in hectoliters worldwide: a microbrewery might produce 500 hL per year, while a major brewery produces millions. Wine harvests and grape yields are reported in hL per hectare. Fuel depot capacities and tanker truck volumes are commonly expressed in hectoliters across Europe. One hectoliter of water has a mass of 100 kg.
A standard 50-liter beer keg = 0.5 hL. A microbrewery defines its annual output in hundreds of hL.
About US tablespoon (tbsp)
The US tablespoon (tbsp) is a unit of culinary volume equal to approximately 14.787 milliliters, defined as 3 US teaspoons or half a US fluid ounce. It is a fundamental cooking measurement in the United States for both liquid and dry ingredients. Butter is measured in tablespoons (1 stick = 8 tbsp), as are cooking oils, sauces, and spices. The US tablespoon differs from the Australian tablespoon (20 mL) and the imperial tablespoon (17.76 mL).
One tablespoon of olive oil is about 14 g. A standard butter portion is 1 tbsp (≈ 14 g).
