Review: Genius idea - dead handy - no mess - quick clean up! - I spotted this measuring cup in John Lewis some months ago and was about to by three - one for me and one for my sister and my partner. Thought I'd check good old desertcart and hey presto! Much cheaper and prime delivery - no brainer. I've been using it for some months now and I am well impressed with this little measuring marvel! You know when something takes your eye and you think 'Wow! that's brilliant!' this is one of those things. I love kitchen stuff and had to have one of these as it looks cool being retro - it can measure more or less everything you can think of - it's metal - it's lightweight and takes up no space at all and it's easy to clean! So what can it measure and what upto? - English Cups upto 1.5 - English Pints to 1.75 - American Cups to 1.5 - American Pints to 1.75 - Millilitres to 400mls - Rolled Oats/Fresh Bread Crumbs to 100g - Dessicated Coconut to 100g - Cornflour/Cocoa to 200g - Ground Almonds/Shredded Suet to 150g - Sugar/Rice to 250g - Lentils/Barley/Peas/Haricots to 250g - Sultanas/Tapioca to 250g - Ground Rice/Currants/Semolina/Raisins to 200g - Custard Powder/MilkPowder/Flour/Icing Sugar to 200g All weight measurements are in increments of 50g or 1oz. Volume measurements are in 100mls. I've used this loads since I got it and used nearly all the ingredients mentioned and. . .and . . . everything has turned out spot on. It's brill for knocking a quick soup up and baking cakes. The US cup measurements are handy too! No need to dig that stack of US cups out the cupboard! Really like this one, recommended to any keen cooks out there!
Review: Simple,Brilliant, Retro - And Made in England - I first spotted these in a shop at a trendy seaside town at close on twice the price these are sold for on desertcart. Whilst both my wife and I baulked at the actual price we loved the retro looks and of course the practicality. So when my wife spotted this on desertcart she bought two. One for her and one for our daughter as she now has the joys of making home food now she has babies to feed. Primarily it is a simple way to measure without using a set of scales. Dry food mostly, but as Tala state on their website you can use it for liquid if you immediately pour it out into the bowl, as this is not leak proof and being tinned steel will rust if left wet. Also, no dishwashers. Hand wash in ordinary soapy water and then dry out. What it is though is easy to use and quick. Old fashioned but brilliant. And best of all made - yes, actually made - in England.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can someone tell me - are the American cup sizes on this for dry or liquid measurements?**
A: The cup sizes are for either dry or liquid.  A cup of water is the same as a cup of flour. So I don't quite get the question. On the other hand both English and American pints are on here, as are cups and a basic milliliters chart. All of the dry measuring items, such as rice or tapioca give bother ounces and grams. So, one could easure 100 grams of rolled oats or 4 oz of rolled outs, or 1 cup of rolled oats (English or American). Hope that's helpful.

**Q: Does this measure porridge oats?**
A: The cooks measure is marked with a number of dry weight measurements, so if your porridge oats are dry, then the answer is yes.

**Q: can this be used to measure carbohydrates**
A: Different dry ingredients are written on the inside of the measurer with a volume (fill up to line). However being made from a single stamped pressed metal it won't hold liquids as they leak from seam where it has been machine pressed.ie sugar, flour etc. Also if hand washing you have to ensure it is completely dry before storage or else it will rust . Hope this helps?

**Q: Why is 5 the minimum order on this?????**
A: I am sure is isn't. If you change the style number on the order page it will revert back to 1. and that is all you need to order.  It was all I did. Hope this helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but
*by A***R on 22 March 2024*

Good quality, but after using for a several times, I found a drawbacks of using metal as the cylinder materials. It's too hot to hold if the liquid inside is kind of boiled. Besides, the interval of markings are quite large, say every 100ml, plus it is not a cylinder shape (but like a pyramid) it is hard to estimate the halfway.
