Answer to Question 1

The re-solidified fat will have a greater volume due to expansion that occurs as solidification occurs.

Answer to Question 2

The standard technique for measuring plastic fats is to measure the fat at room temperature. Once pliable and soft, spoon the fat into a fractionated metal measuring cup. Press the fat down firmly to remove all air bubbles. Level the top of the cup with a straight edge utensil. Water displacement can also be used to measure fat.
