I use these adjectives to show the amount of any entity (Sorted from highest to lowest)
LIQUID/SOLID as applicable:
I need a lot of milk to drink now-a-days. (Highest in quantity)
I need a good amount of milk to drink now-a-days. (Higher than average in quantity)
Or
I need much amount of milk (oranges) to drink (eat) now-a-days. (Higher than average in quantity)
I need a fair amount of milk to drink now-a-days. (Medium quantity applicable for liquid)
Or
I need an average number of oranges to eat now-a-days. (Medium quantity applicable for solid)
I need less amount of milk to drink now-a-days. (Lesser than average in quantity)
I need a little amount of milk to drink now-a-days. (Least in quantity for liquid)
Or
I need a few oranges to eat now-a-days. (Least in quantity for solid)
These usages are entirely made up by none other than myself and I never verified these usages from somebody. I clearly mentioned on what conditions, I use what adjectives. Please suggest me if there are some mistakes in using them; the mistake can be in the very adjective used or the condition on which the adjective is used in different cases. Also if I am lacking some more frequently used adjectives, please mention them.
