1L graduated measuring jug for measuring and preparing liquids
The GRADUATED Jug (Plastic) BPA FREE – Volume Measure 1L is a graduated container designed for measuring, preparing and pouring liquids. Its 1-litre capacity makes it particularly practical when working with larger quantities, from liquid ingredients and recipes to premixes and cocktail batches.
It is made from BPA-free plastic and has a transparent body that allows the liquid level and graduations to be easily observed. The handle makes the jug easier to hold and manoeuvre, while the pouring spout helps transfer liquids in a controlled manner.

What can a 1L graduated measuring jug be used for?
A graduated measuring jug is useful when liquid ingredients need to be measured and then transferred to another container. The 1L capacity allows larger volumes to be handled without repeatedly measuring them in smaller containers.
It can be used for:
- preparing cocktail batches and premixes;
- measuring syrups, juices and other liquid ingredients;
- preparing ingredients for bar and kitchen service;
- pastry and baking recipes containing liquid ingredients;
- portioning and transferring liquids during preparation;
- prep work in restaurants, cafés, bars and catering operations.
Graduated measuring jug for cocktail batching and premixes
In a bar, measuring is not always limited to the small quantities dispensed with a jigger. When preparing cocktail premixes or batches, the required volume can quickly reach several hundred millilitres.
A 1L graduated jug allows larger quantities to be prepared and monitored in a single container, making it useful for organising ingredients before service and for various bar prep tasks.
For measuring individual small quantities used in a cocktail, a jigger remains the more appropriate tool. The 1L jug is primarily intended for measuring, preparing and handling larger volumes.
Visible graduations for monitoring liquid volume
The graduated markings on the container allow the liquid level to be monitored while measuring ingredients or preparing a recipe.
For the clearest reading, place the jug on a level surface and observe the liquid level in relation to the graduations on the container.
The jug is designed for practical volume measurement during preparation tasks. It should not be confused with a calibrated measuring instrument or laboratory vessel intended for metrological measurements or applications requiring a certified accuracy class.
Why choose a plastic measuring jug?
Plastic makes the container lightweight and easy to handle during everyday preparation tasks. The transparent body makes it easier to observe the amount of liquid inside, while the handle provides a practical grip when working with larger volumes.
The pouring spout is useful when the measured liquid needs to be transferred into a shaker, storage container, mixing bowl or another preparation vessel.
What does BPA-free mean?
BPA is the abbreviation for bisphenol A. The material used for this measuring jug is specified as BPA-free, an important characteristic for buyers looking for plastic containers made without this compound.
The term “BPA-free” describes a characteristic of the material and should not be confused with metrological certification of the container or with a statement regarding the accuracy of its graduations.
1L or 500ml graduated measuring jug?
The most suitable capacity depends primarily on the amount of liquid normally handled during preparation.
The 1L version is better suited to batches, premixes, recipes and other preparations involving larger quantities. It allows a larger volume to be measured in a single container and reduces the need to repeat the process with a smaller jug.
The 500ml version is more compact and may be more practical for small to medium quantities or at workstations where available space is limited.
When both small and larger volumes are regularly prepared, the two sizes can complement each other in the same preparation area.
Graduated measuring jug or graduated cylinder?
A graduated measuring jug and a graduated cylinder have different shapes and practical uses.
A graduated measuring jug is practical when a liquid needs to be measured, handled and then poured easily. Its handle, wide opening and pouring spout are useful for everyday preparation tasks.
A graduated cylinder has a tall, narrow shape and may be preferable when more detailed reading and comparison of liquid volume is required, depending on the specific graduation interval of the cylinder.
The right choice therefore depends not only on capacity, but also on how the measuring container will be used.
For bars, kitchens and HoReCa preparation
The 1L capacity makes this graduated jug suitable for work areas where ingredients are prepared before or during service. It can be used in bars, restaurants, cafés, pastry shops, kitchens and catering operations.
It is also suitable for home users looking for a larger graduated container for preparing recipes and measuring liquids.
Cleaning and use
To help protect the container and its graduated markings, we recommend hand washing and avoiding abrasive sponges or objects that could scratch the surface.
We do not recommend cleaning this product in a dishwasher.
