Adds a bit of fun to the home bar!,

This review is from: Harold Imports Precision Pours Margarita Measures, Set of 2 (Kitchen)
Great and fun little accessories to have with you when making a few drinks! I definitely get most of my usage out of the 'green' one which is supposed to pour 1.5 ounces. I tested both of them initially and quickly realized that it takes a few tries to get the feel for how much you need to tilt your liquor bottles to get the most precise pours. They do recommend that you hold it at 45 degrees, but if you think too hard about it you probably won't do it right! Start around 45 and tilt a bit more. If you look at how it works, at some point one of the three ball bearings in there ends up blocking the flow of liquor, but only if you've got the bottle tilted enough.
TL;DR: Great bar accessory, just make sure you TILT!

This review is from: Harold Imports Precision Pours Margarita Measures, Set of 2 (Kitchen)
When I got these measured pour spouts I immediately filled an empty bottle with water and tested the 1 1/2 ounce spout using a shot glass with markings for 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2 and 3 ounces. The first 2-3 pours all turned out to be slightly less than 2 ounces, which would have been fine if it was consistent. I continued to test and the measurement started varying anywhere between 1/2 ounce and something greater than 3 ounces (the capacity of the measuring glass I was using.)
I started trying to tilt the bottle at a different angles (they recommend 45 degrees), tilting the bottle gradually vs tilting it fast and changing any other variable for which I could think. Occasionally I would get a pour between 1 1/2 and 2 ounces but it was so inconsistent as to make these useless. Save your money and buy some shot glass/jiggers if you want consistency. Just search for jigger or mini measure to find these on Amazon.
