Last week, I decided to bake a big batch of soup. My stockpot holds exactly 6 litres. I filled it to the brim, added some carrots, and thought, “Wow, that’s a lot of liquid.” It took 30 minutes just to bring it to a boil. Six litres has heft—it weighs about 6 kilograms (that’s 13.2 pounds for my imperial friends). Try lifting a bag of potatoes next time you’re at the store. That’s your water jug, but wetter.

My dog, Milo, saw the pot and tried to drink from it. He got four laps in before I pulled him away. Even a thirsty Golden Retriever knows 6 litres is a commitment. Moral of the story: 6 litres is a lot of water for a pet, a soup, or a human—unless you’re a camel in disguise.
