Measuring Tip
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.
Understanding the Units
What is a Pound?
Pounds are the standard weight unit for buying ingredients in the US. A standard bag of flour is 5 pounds (2,268g) and a standard bag of sugar is 4 pounds (1,814g).
What is a Gallon?
For large-batch cooking, 1 US gallon is approximately 3.8 liters. The imperial gallon (4.5 liters) is no longer commonly used in the UK for cooking, as most modern British recipes use metric measurements.

Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The pounds to gallons result for evaporated milk should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. A pound of evaporated milk fills a different number of gallons than a pound of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
