Is .6 liter capacity bigger or smaller than 1 quart size?

1 quart is the equivalent of 0.94635 liters... so .6 liter is smaller than a quart...

Smaller than a US quart. It's about .6 US quarts. It's a little over half a quart.

The bottom of my Magefesa Practika Plus pressure cooker is stamped "3.2L/3.3Qt." However, the Maximum Fill Line inside the pot is less. I took an empty 1 liter soda bottle and filled it with water to the maximum fill line. The result was using approximately 2.25 bottles to reach that line, so the capacity, if using under pressure, is somewhere between 2.25 and 2.33 liters. Just right for two people! But if you are using large cuts of meat, you may want to get the 6Qt. model. I have that one too and it is great for one pot dinners.

For the two of us, the 6 qt. size is fine. I use the pressure pan less -- at 2 1/2 qt, it's just a little small.

It can hold 6 1/2 quarts. It's oval-shaped and about 15 inches wide on the long side.

This is smaller. There are 4 cups per quart, so the 6 qt would have 24 cups.

It's a 6qt pot. My Cuisinart EPC-600 6qt pot is interchangeable with the Deni pot with each machine's pot working fine in the other cooker. Not sure how Deni got to call this a 6.5qt pot except maybe they rounded up. Many of these similar cookers are sold aboad as 6 liter pots and rounding 6 liters up to the nearest half quart gives you 6.5qt. FWIW, the sealing ring on the Deni and Cuisinart are also interchangeable.

It doesn't all fit in a large size mason jar or whatever it is that I use. But I don't think you'd want anything larger than a quart. What doesn't fit in the jar I use, I just put in its bag in a freezer bag and keep it in the freezer till there's room in the big jar and I haven't noticed any problem with that.

I can only tell you that my 6qt has #3251221 on the bottom. Not the #4506 that you mentioned. Also, mine is polished and shiny, weighing in at 5lbs 2.5oz with the lid, and 3lbs 12.8oz without.

I don't have time to do the arithmetic for you. A liter is only slightly more than a quart, about 1%. When you realize that manufacturers measure capacity of cookware to it's maximum, not to a practical capacity, you can realistically read liters as quarts. In other words think of a 4 liter pot as a 4 quart pot and you'll be fine.

Magefesa Star R 6L / 6.3 Quarts Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker I own a Magefesa Star R 6L / 6.3 pressure cooker. The capacity is 6 Liters/6.3 Quarts. (6 liters=6.3 quarts) It's a perfect size for me and is a great cooker. I like the way the lid fastens to the cooker...very safe--no fear of lid coming off and blowing food all over the kitchen!

No it is better to have more room then less.you will find out you can cook more meals in the larger cooker then in the smaller. The 6 qt is the perfect size. I know you will love it

I measure with Water and it is 4 quarts, it say 4-1/2 but the bottom is smaller and gets wider at the top.

Mine is a 7 quart and fit easily. Beware the ripping handles though, I almost dropped the crockpot on the sidewalk when the handles ripped.

We use it all the time for a family of 4 but I guess it depends if you are counting on leftovers? for example in this pot I can cook 2 one-pound bags of dry beans, and that really fills up the pot. Or pressure cook 3 pounds of skinless boneless chicken breasts, or a 4 pound chunk of beef. If you are canning, it holds 4 1-pint jars. This size is 6 liters which is a little bigger than 6 quarts, but in any case, that's over a gallon. If you have teenage boys in the house and are feeding their friends too sometimes, then you might want to go with the bigger size.

I believe the difference are the depths. I would not say the 6 qt. is bigger because it is more shallow but seems to be wider. Where the 8 qt. is less shallow and probably not as wide. I got the 8 qt. and it really is a great size for everything we use it for.

Probably, but that's still subjective. You can probably find very small travel sizes of this company's products (they make them in 4 oz bottles) and try it out at relatively little cost. Then if you like it, buy the quart or larger size.

I've used them in a 6 quart a 3 quart and have even used them in a 1.5 quart. You will have a lot hanging out, but it works fine.
