<<as a sidenote for  precision's sake: we're talking about weighing 
mililiters, that is very  imprecise: when weighing one counts grams. 1 gram of milk

will weight  considerably less per mililiter than lowfat milk)>>


 
 
Can you give me more information  about this?  Perhaps this is something that 
everyone knows except me.... Or  point me to where I can find out about the 
weight of fat heavy milk vs low fat  milk?  I'm assuming the same would hold 
true for cow's milk -- so that a  pint of heavy whipping cream would weigh less 
than a pint of skim milk.  I  don't have any on hand so can't weigh it out, 
but would love to know how much  the differences would be.
 
I don't recall that Paula Meier  made that sort of a differentiation in her 
study that showed that 1 ml of human  milk weighed 1 gm but perhaps I missed it.
