What is the metric equivalent of a butt load?

Answer 1

an a-r-s-e load

Answer 2

Get a load of this...There is an exact unit of volume called the butt.

See Webster's dictionary:

Butt: a measure of liquid capacity equal to 126 gallons or two hogs heads.

From another dictionary:

An English butt is 2 hogshead of 54 imperial gallons each or ~129.7 US gallons (i.e., a UK butt is apparently slightly bigger than a US one).

A Spanish butt is based on a wine cask and is equivalent to 140 US gallons or ~116.6 UK gallons (i.e., a Spanish butt is bigger still).

So next time someone says they have a "butt load" of stuff, just remember, that is about two 55-gallon barrels worth of stuff.

To recap...1 butt equals:

• 2 hogsheads (this is probably the easiest to remember for social occasions)
• 476.961 liters
• 126 gallons
• 104.917 UK gallons
• 13.5347 bushels
• 0.131592 cords
• 11.6574 firkins
• 4032 gills
• 21504 ponys
• 4032 noggins
• 1008 pints
• 96768 teaspoons
• 12.0308 ephahs
• 1.58987x10^7 drops
• 10752 jiggers
• 16128 shots
• 629.504 wine bottles
• 630 fifths

And the punchline...One microbutt = 0.0968 teaspoons.

Answer 3

The term "butt load" is not a standard unit of measurement in the metric system or any other formal system of measurement. In the context of informal language, it is used to signify a large or unspecified quantity, but it does not have a specific numerical value. To express a large quantity in metric terms, one would typically use standard units such as kilograms, liters, or meters.

Answer 4

Well, darling, a butt load is actually a real unit of measurement used in the wine industry and is equal to about 126 gallons. In the metric system, that would be roughly 477 liters. So next time someone tells you they have a butt load of something, you can impress them with your newfound knowledge.

Answer 5

There is no specific metric equivalent for "butt load" as it is an informal term. However, if we assume it refers to a large quantity, it could be roughly equivalent to a metric measurement of a ton or more, depending on context.
