Can whole milk be made into two per cent milk by adding water?

Answer 1

i don't believe so, although by undergoing chemical changes (which you probably won't have the resources to simulate) you can change the compounds to make 2 percent milk. Otherwise..buy some 2 percent!

Answer 2

Consider a gallon to be 100 units. A gallon of 1% milk has 1 unit of fat, so a half gallon would have .5 units of fat. A gallon of 2% milk has 2 units of fat.

1 gallon plus 1/2 gallon would be 150 units, and the combination suggested would give 2.5 units of fat. 2.5 divided by 150 - 1.67% milk.

Answer 3

Technically no.

You can achieve the same fat content as whole milk by doing that in the proper proportions, but you wouldn't legally be able to sell it as "whole milk".

If that doesn't matter to you and you just need whole milk for a recipe, sure. You'll have to do a little research to get the proportions correct.

Answer 4

No. Low fat milk is not made by adding milk, but removing butterfat.

Answer 5

No. Milk is made by taking out certain percentages of fat. Watering down milk will not change the fat content...watered down whole milk simply becomes whole milk with water.

Answer 6

No, you do not.

Answer 7

Yes it will add more fat to the dish

Answer 8

No
