Metal measuring cup Stalgast 506202

A measuring cup provides consistent liquid volumes in professional kitchens by holding a set amount marked on its side. The transparent vessel lets the operator see the level against the scale, removing guesswork from recipes that call for specific quantities of water, oil, stock or other liquids.

The cup is filled to the required mark, then poured into the preparation. Because the vessel is open and unpressurised, the liquid settles quickly and the reading is taken at eye level to avoid parallax error. The wide rim reduces spillage when transferring the measured portion to a pan or mixing bowl.

This Stalgast measuring cup holds 2 litres, giving a single vessel for larger batches without repeated smaller measures. The clear markings remain legible after repeated washing, and the smooth interior prevents residue build-up that could distort future readings.

Construction is a single piece of transparent, food-safe plastic. The material is lightweight enough to handle easily when full, yet rigid enough to keep its shape under normal kitchen loads. No moving parts or electronic components are present, so the cup requires no calibration or power supply.

The cup has no controls; the operator reads the volume directly from the printed scale. The scale is graduated in litres and millilitres, allowing precise measurement down to the smallest division.

A 2 litre capacity means the cup can measure larger liquid volumes in one pour, reducing the number of transfers and the risk of spillage. The footprint is small enough to store on a shelf or in a drawer, while the lightweight construction makes it easy to lift and pour even when full.

Cleaning is straightforward: the cup is washed by hand or in a commercial dishwasher, rinsed and dried. The smooth plastic surface resists staining and does not absorb odours, so the cup remains hygienic through repeated use.
