@adelleda Back when I was in NZ I remember there being two grades of gelatine leaf: Gold and Silver. I remember the silver to be: 1 leaf will set 100ml firm or 200ml light set. Gold was: 1 leaf will set 250ml to a very light set (better for in a container) and 3 leaves will lightly set 500ml. If you want to mould the panna cotta then 4-5 gold leaves are what you needed.
Also, all cream panna cotta recipes tend to be a little more firmer than one made with all milk, so if you are adding milk to the recipe naturally expect it to be a little softer (or lighter) set. Essentially panna cotta is all about ratios and once you have that figured out for the recipe that you are using then you will be rocking and rolling.
I hope some of what we are saying here helps and let us know how it turns out for you /img/vbsmilies/smilies/smile.gif

I agree with this if you are using the silver leaf gelatine. You will have to experiment with it being 5 or 6 leaves for the recipe at hand.
