Questions about this calculator

Does overfill always equal waste?

It is product supplied above target. Some margin may be necessary to control underfill risk; the opportunity is to centre and reduce variation without creating non-compliance.

Can millilitres be treated as grams?

Only when density is approximately one or the product cost is entered on a compatible basis. For other liquids, convert using measured density.

What data should I use?

Use a representative average from consecutive production packs, not one hand-selected sample.
