Milk (skimmed): mL to Grams and Grams to mL
If a recipe lists skimmed milk in mL and your scale reads grams, the short answer is that 100 mL of skimmed milk weighs about 104 g. Skimmed milk is heavier than water, so the two numbers are never the same.
The Formula
mL to grams: Weight (g) = Volume (mL) × 1.04
Grams to mL: Volume (mL) = Weight (g) ÷ 1.04
Worked Examples
- 15 mL of skimmed milk = 15.6 g
- 250 mL of skimmed milk = 260 g
- 200 g of skimmed milk = 192.3 mL
Common Kitchen Measures
- 1 teaspoon (4.93 mL) = 5.1 g
- 1 tablespoon (14.79 mL) = 15.4 g
- 1/4 cup (59.1 mL) = 61.5 g
- 1/2 cup (118.3 mL) = 123 g
- 1 cup (236.6 mL) = 246.1 g
Why Skimmed Milk Weighs What It Does
Skimmed milk has had most of its fat removed. Milk fat is lighter than water, so taking it out leaves a liquid slightly denser than whole milk.
Measuring Tips
Weigh milk when a recipe is sensitive, such as custards or bread doughs. Cold and room temperature milk differ by an amount too small to matter at home.
