Weight of fuel

Did anyone notice a change in the weight of fuel (Jet A1)?

I did a test on the Cessna Caravan C208 due to the spoiler issue with ISA conditions and checked the weight&balance before as well to ensure identical conditions. And I noticed a change in the weight/density of (Jet A1) fuel there.

With patch 1.8.3.0 the weight of the default amount of fuel in C208 was 990lbs (82,5 gallons each wing). With patch 1.9.3.0 the weight of the same amount is 1105lbs.

Any findings about that? Did anyone notice?

I believe they updated the unusable fuel quantity. If the fuel weight is correct (should be 6.7# per gal.), then that would reflect ~17 gallons unusable.
