The meaning of the word “to” in context

It is from this video. It is at around 5 minute and 53 second. Here is the context:

People would down an entire pint to a pint and a half of saturated salt solution.

Does the speaker mean two pints and a half? if he does, would not it be simpler just to say two pints an a half?

Answer

This means “between a pint and a pint and a half”, or could also be written “1–1.5 pints”.
