Q. ##asktheexpert When we give formula milk, standard measurement is 1 scoop in 30 ml water, 2 scoop in 60 ml water and so on. But once it is ready, the actual quantity is turned out to be more. Why is that so? What should be consider as a quantity? For eg, when I add formula milk 3.5 scoops in 105 ml of water then final quantity becomes 120 to 125. What is the actual volume then?
