Sarah Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 This a good question that was given to me, and I simply do not have an answer, as I always converted to teaspoons. 1 oz = 6 tsp. Is there ounce measuring cups/spoons? Any brand you can recommend? Sarah Quote Link to comment
Midnightmom Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) I'm pretty sure that 2T = 1/8 c (discovered by pouring from one measuring device to another) Found some pics I had saved. Hope these help. Edited April 18, 2019 by Midnightmom 1 2 Quote Link to comment
Annarchy Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Sarah, I found several measuring cups and spoons on-line... Amazon, WallMart, Wayfarer, Overstock, etc. all seem to have various options available. I have a 4 cup Pyrex measure, that is marked in ounces. Quote Link to comment
Sarah Posted April 19, 2019 Author Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) Thank you ladies. I see I was not clear. What the questioner wants is one ounce and down. All the cups I have seen start at 2 ounces. And let me toss this one into the mix. 3 tsp = 2 tbsp. Another toss-in. I would bet most of you do 'heaping' when you use such spoons, etc. Spoons are supposed to be 'level'. Yet another toss-in. Don't confuse American and Imperial (England) measurements. I found one *very* cheap looking Asian-ring set of four spoons, 2-1-1/2-1/4 oz. (or 12tbsp/6tbsp/3tbsp/4.5 tsp) Pass. Cheap. Sarah Edited April 19, 2019 by Sarah Quote Link to comment
Mt_Rider Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I measure level .....cuz I was in 4H for most of my childhood. Never took the "required" Home Ec cuz I had all that to the "enth degree"! Question, Sarah. Isn't "ounces" a measurement of weight and not volume? And therefore an ounce of feathers and an ounce of gold would have different volume....different sizes to contain them.

I have no idea what the measurement is in a jigger.) The chart above (with the milk bottles in it) says that 2 Tbs = 1 fluid oz Quote Link to comment

Sounds like bar measurements might be your solution. https://drinks.seriouseats.com/2011/06/cocktail-101-measuring-utensils-jiggers-cups.html Follow the link for more info. Quote Link to comment

The 'fluid' is understood, and dropped in a lot of tables and recipes. Sorry, Sarah 1 Quote Link to comment
Mt_Rider Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Yes...I figured that out when others used the term 'fluid'..... MtRider Quote Link to comment

Sarah Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 Thank you ladies. My man, Amos, gave a solution to the questioner that was liked. 'Graduated cylinders'... Think test tube, with molded on stand, marked, and made of pyrex or borosilicate. But $$$ 1 Quote Link to comment
