What are Dekaliter and Barrel

A dekaliter, often abbreviated as daL, is a metric unit of volume equal to ten liters. It's a non-SI unit accepted for use with the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used in countries that utilize the metric system. This unit represents a quantity of liquid or gas that would fit into a cube with each side measuring 10 centimeters.
