BarCraft Cocktail Jigger Dual Spirit Measure Cup, Stainless Steel, 25ml/50ml

Product Information

In addition to its practical benefits, a jigger with a handle can also be a stylish and attractive addition to a bartender's toolkit. They come in a variety of materials, such as stainless steel, copper, and gold, and often feature sleek and modern designs that complement the aesthetics of a well-appointed bar.

Material: 18/18 stainless steel with different plating options available | Size: 1.75 x 0.1 x 4.75 inches | Capacity: 1 ounce (bottom), 2 ounces (top) | Dishwasher-Safe?: Depends on the finish A shot can be anywhere between 1.25 ounces, 1.5 ounces, and 2 ounces, although most bartenders in the United States will agree that a shot equals 1.5 ounces. Typically, an official jigger will measure 1.5 ounces on one side and 1 ounce on the other. The larger side is often referred to as a "jigger shot" and the smaller side is often called a "pony shot." A jigger, then, is closer in measurement to one shot rather than two. My set arrived surprisingly FAST, beautifully box wrapped with a lovely little note that made me smile and made my day (it's always the little and unexpected kindnesses that warm my heart).

If you are uncertain, pour a small amount of your ingredient and taste it. Add more if you think it needs it.

Pony: This means 1 oz and references the short nature of American shot glasses, whereas other countries use 1.5 to 2 oz shot glasses. However, if you’re looking to drink a bit more, then you can try shots that have 1.5 ounces of alcohol in them. Just be aware that they will have a stronger effect on you. Knowing how to use a jigger is an essential skill for any bartender. By using the correct side of the jigger, you’ll be able to make accurate measurements and pour perfect shots every time. Is a shot 1 oz or 1.5 oz? Material: Stainless steel with different plating options available | Size: 3.25 x 2.25 x 6.25 inches | Capacity: 2.5 ounces | Dishwasher-Safe?: Yes

Part: This is not a particular measurement. Rather, it’s based on the volume of your serving size/glass. All the recipe is recording is the ratio of the ingredients to each other. Parts are great for drinks like sangria, where you could be making a glass or a pitcher. Material: 18/18 stainless steel with different plating options available | Size: 2.9 x 2.35 x 3.65 inches | Capacity: 1.01 ounces (top), 2.03 ounces (bottom) | Dishwasher-Safe?: Depends on the finish

One of the very best things about the measuring cups is the large SIZE of the cup sizes raised / stamped into the bottoms of the copper cups. No more having to find my glasses or squint! My partner has commented on how he only likes to use the fancy measuring spoons now for his coffee etc... ha! When it comes to shots, there is some confusion about exactly how much alcohol is in them. Some people think that there is one ounce of alcohol in every shot, while others believe that there is 1.5 ounces of alcohol in every shot. So, which is it? A jigger is a bartending tool used to measure liquor in ounces. There are typically two sides to a jigger, each with its own measurement. Most bartenders will use the smaller side for shots and the larger side for mixed drinks.This copper measuring set is absolutely gorgeous, stunning, beautifully made - and is even better in real life than the pics :) Material: Pewter | Size: 2 x 4.2 inches | Capacity: 1 ounce (bottom), 1.5 ounces (top) | Dishwasher-Safe?: No It’s also important to note that different types of liquor have different alcohol contents. So, if you are using a liquor that is higher in alcohol content, you will need to use less of it to achieve the desired strength. For example, 80 proof vodka has a 40% alcohol content, while 80 proof bourbon has a 50% alcohol content. Jump’s fellow Death & Co. Denver bartender Jon Feuersanger offers another handy option for the at-home bartender: “The measuring devices I use at home that are 100 percent [utilitarian] and easy-to-use are the OXO steel-angled jiggers.” According to him, these workhorse jiggers function as a mini measuring cup and hit all the main measurements in one, from 0.25 ounces to 2 ounces. Plus, the price is hard to beat—even if it doesn't have that iconic look that makes the others feel like more attractive options.
