Im Planning on using zeovit and they recommend using .3 liters of carbon and .8 liters of zeolites.

Im not sure how to measure this though. I typed .8 liters to cups in google and it gave me a reading of 3.38 cups but im not sure if this means liquid cups or solid cups.

Can anyone help?

unbreakable: I still get the same answer.

luther: I dont see any conversions for dry liters on that link.

It will make a difference if its liquid or dry correct? Does 3.38 cups = .8 liters?

Here is a nice one to use-

I usually click the cooking link for most things and you can convert anything to anything. Comes in pretty handy.

250 ml in a cup, 1000 ml in a litre, 4 cups in a litre!

oh, and if what you're measuring out is a solid, I'm sure they mean "solid cups"

A liter is a liter, however a cup can be many things. If you are in the U.S. and will use a standard cooking cup to measure; 0.3 liters are 1.268 cups and 0.8 liters are 3.38 cups. Be aware there are also metric cups, Canadian cups, Japanese cups, and others. Which factor to use will depend on your final measuring device, as long as they match, you'll be fine.
