What is the liquid equivalent of 1 kilo in weight?

Question

I am making marrow rum, using a 1 1/2 kilo marrow, filled with 1/2 kilo sugar. I need to know how much liquid it will yield. Ie; 1 gallon or 1/2 a gallon?

Answer 1

Well, water is 1kilo = 1litre, so you shouldn't get more than a 1/2 gallon (2+1/2 litres or so), probably less if you filter the solids out afterwards.

This also depends on if you are adding any other liquids such as water to it ...  

Answer 2

I don't know the exact weight of rum, but water has a density of 1 g/cubic centimetre and so 1 kilogram of water would equal 1 litre, so roughly 0.3 gallons

Answer 3

It cannot be calculated by simple maths. First of you should measure the density of the mixture and then we can calculate the volume of the mixture. theoratically u should know the density of the rum and sugar and then volume can be calculated.
