Enter the liquid mass in kilograms.
Typical water density is about 1.00 kg/L.
Typical water density is about 1.00 kg/L.
Water is a strong baseline for everyday estimates.
Water is the simplest baseline for mass-to-volume comparisons.
Formula
US gallons = kilograms ÷ density in kg/L ÷ 3.785411784. UK gallons = kilograms ÷ density in kg/L ÷ 4.54609.

Salt water is denser than fresh water, so the same mass usually takes up a little less volume.
Milk density changes with fat content and processing, so whole, low-fat, and skim milk should be treated as approximate.
This tool is for brewed liquid coffee, not beans or grounds.
Juice varies by fruit type, sugar content, pulp, and concentration, so density should be treated as an estimate.
