Weighing condensed milk on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. Condensed milk is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and spoons, making volume measurements less reliable than for thinner liquids. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the cup first so the condensed milk slides out cleanly.
Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The gallons to pounds result for condensed milk should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
Condensed milk is dense and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and does not pour cleanly. Volume measurements can easily be off by 5-10% depending on how much condensed milk stays stuck to the container. A kitchen scale avoids this entirely and is the recommended way to measure sticky liquids.
