Tin Size

[Birdfeeder]

Just come across a recipe which says use a 1.2 litre loaf tin. Can anyone tell me if this a 1 lb or 2 lb tin

If you have a tin fill it with 1.2 litres and that will tell you which tin to use.

Any use?

2 lb.

A litre of water weighs 1kg

(Also "a pint of water weighs a pound and a quarter")
1.2 litres weighs about 2.5 lbs.

So I'd go for the 2lb loaf tin
