Milk, Sheep, Fluid: How Many Grams in a Tablespoon?

By Fidamen-Chefsolver Team | Reviewed by Ugo Candido | Updated

Fluid sheep milk is the densest non-concentrated milk available at 1.036 g/ml, so one US cup weighs about 246 grams and a tablespoon roughly 15.3 grams. Its exceptionally high fat (about 7%) and protein (about 6%) content compared to cow or goat milk make it the preferred base for rich cheeses like Roquefort, Pecorino, and feta, as well as for creamy yogurts and custards.

FAQ

Why is sheep milk denser than cow or goat milk?
Sheep milk registers 1.036 g/ml because it contains roughly twice the fat and 50% more protein than cow milk, packing more dissolved and suspended solids into each milliliter and making each cup about 2 grams heavier than goat milk.
How much does a cup of sheep milk weigh?
At 1.036 g/ml, one US cup (237 ml) of sheep milk weighs approximately 246 grams, about 9 grams more than a cup of water, reflecting its concentrated butterfat and casein protein content.
Can I substitute sheep milk for cow milk in baking recipes?
You can, but sheep milk's higher density of 1.036 g/ml and nearly double the fat content will produce richer, denser baked goods, so reducing added butter or cream slightly can help balance the final texture in cakes and pastries.
