How Much Does One Cup of 2% Milk Weigh?

3 min read
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), a standard US cup of 2% milk weighs approximately 244 grams. This weight is slightly more than a cup of water, a fact that is critical for precision in baking and other culinary applications where measuring by weight is preferred over volume. The slight difference in density is due to the milk's proteins, lactose, and fat content.
