Best Answer

I'd say around eight pounds.

Milk has a density between 1.02 and 1.05 grams/milliliter, so US gallon of milk would weigh between 8.5 to 8.8 pounds.

In the imperial system of measure the weight of a Gallon of WATER is 10 Pound. MILK weighs very close to the same as water. In the Metric system, 1gallon equals 4.54 LITRE and weighs 4.54 Kliogram. The correct answer is therefore either 10 pound weight or 4.54 Kg weight. Remember that for WATER, the number of Litres you have, is always the SAME as the number of Kg that it weighs.

How much does a gallon of fat free milk weigh?

The weight of a gallon of milk is only slightly greater than a gallon of water, about 3% more. A US gallon with 2% milkfat weighs about 8.4 pounds, compared to 8.6 pounds for "whole milk" and 8.35 pounds for a gallon of water. Milk is 87 % water, thus a gallon of milk will not differ from milk much. The 8.6 lbs/gal factor (whole milk) is correct. The weight increases as fat is removed. By weight: Milk : 8.6 lb/gallon Condensed milk : 9.4 lb/gallon Cream 8.28 lb/gallon * The British or Imperial Gallon is defined as exactly 10 pounds of water. You can convert the above figures by using 1 Imperial Gallon = 1.201 US gallons.
