Setier
The setier , also septier, was a measure of volume in France and Switzerland . The measure was adapted to the goods and often smaller in the region ( Agde , Strasbourg ). In Strasbourg there was the urban and rural animal. In a narrow sense, the Setier and the Muid were only measures of calculation.
- In general, 1 Setier = 2 Mines = 4 Minots = 12 Boisseaux = 192 Litrons
- 1 Setier charcoal = 32 boisseaux = 20,984.96 Parisian cubic inches = 416.2655 liters
- ½ Setier charcoal = 16 Boisseaux = 1 Voie (Fuhre / Sac) (not equal to the firewood measure Voie)
- 1 muid of charcoal = 320 boisseaux = 10 setiers (coal sets) = 41.62655 hectoliters
In the ordinary trade the merchants reckoned a muid with eight coal setiers (256 boisseaux).
- 1 set of wheat , rye , barley , flour , legumes , seeds = 12 boisseaux = 7869.36 Parisian cubic inches = 156.0996 liters

- 1 Setier oats = 24 Boisseaux = 15738.72 Parisian cubic inches = 312.1991 liters
- 1 muid of oats = 288 boisseaux = 12 sets (oat set) = 37.4639 hectoliters
- 1 Setier salt = 16 boisseaux = 10492.48 Parisian cubic inches = 208.1328 liters
