You just need a container (cup, jar, bottle etc. it doesn't matter what size it is) and a weight scale.
1. Weigh the container empty. The weight is c.
2. Fill with water and weigh it. The weight is w.
3. Fill to the same level with milk and weigh it. The weight is m.
The specific gravity of milk is (m - c) / (w - c)
Ideally the milk and the water are at the same temperature.
The largest container will give a more accurate result assuming you have enough milk to fill it.

Why specific gravity increases in case of skimmed milk?
The specific gravity of skimmed milk is greater than that of whole milk because because cream is lighter than milk, thus removing it makes the remaining liquid heavier per unit of volume. As a liquid's weight per unit of volume increases its specific gravity increases.
What is the importance of specific gravity for cement quality?
To find the specific gravity of cement

The density of which substance is measured by a lactometer?
A lactometer is used to measure the specific gravity (richness) of milk.
What is the specific gravity of cement?
Specific gravity of cement is 3.15.The specific gravity of cement is 3.15The specific gravity can be found out by using the bottle method.For finding specific gravity of cement kerosene is used.
What is the principle of lactometer?
A Lactometer is a little glass instrument that tests the purity of milk based on density/buoyancy and works on the principle of the specific gravity of milk.
What type of adulteration do you suspect for those milk samples whose specific gravity lies out side the normal range?
In milk, always suspect melamine first.
What is diamonds specific gravity?

There is no such thing as a specific gravity for any element.
What is the specific gravity for aluminum?
Aluminum has no specific gravity, at least by the current definition of gravity.
What you used to find the mass of materials and substances?
if you know the specific gravity and the volume of the substance you can find the mass.
