Three cups is 1 1/2 pints, or three-quarters of a quart. A 4-cup glass measure holds it with room to spare, which helps when you carry hot stock from the stove.
A 750 mL wine bottle holds about 3.17 cups, so pouring 3 cups from a full bottle leaves a little behind (750 mL to cups).
For dry ingredients, 3 cups of spooned all-purpose flour weighs about 360 g (12.7 oz by weight) and granulated sugar about 594 g (20.95 oz). The same volume of butter would be 6 sticks.
