    Exactly. In Europe for example, you see the stylized “e” symbol on packaging very often. It means that a negligible amount are below the advertised volume/weight.

    So if the package says 600ml, they might have to set the machine to 610ml to ensure they satisfy this condition.

      Isn’t that e for net weight. So it doesn’t include the container. At least that’s what I’ve been led to believe, so now I’ll be googling!
