Product Description

Amazon.com Review
This smart-looking jigger, indispensable during the cocktail hour, is just one of WMF's high-quality bar tools rendered in contemporary European style. Made of 18/10 stainless steel, the jigger holds 2 ounces and has a stylish satin-finish. For contrast, its dramatically flared rim is polished inside to a mirror finish. The jigger is heavy and durable as well as beautiful and goes safely into the dishwasher. --Fred Brack

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Jigger, September 22, 2002

By	Lloyd the bartender (United States) - See all my reviews

Most jiggers are of poor quality....not this one. Predictable German quality.
Beautiful design and quite heavy.
Measures 20ml( 3/4 ounce )up to the flair, 40ml( 1.5 ounces ) up to the top.
It is NOT an American jigger so the measurements are European so keep that in mind. In Europe the standard measurement is 20 ml ( 3/4 Ounce ), not 30 ml which would be our U.S.Ounce.

I use the jigger as a 1.5 ounce measurer...fill up to the top!

One small complaint: I wish the inside of the flair wasn't smooth/polished. It would drain better if it had a brushed surface the same as the rest of the jigger.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very nice jigger that could be better, April 26, 2002

By	Ryuji Suzuki (Cambridge, MA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This jigger is very simple to use and nice to see. This is a quick operating jigger, best used with a simple Boston shaker and a strainer to fit. If you are starting your basement bar for the summer season, I recommend this one for modern setting, and Hoffritz one (another Amazon item) for all traditional setting. You could also buy a small glass graduated cylinder from lab supply companies for a funky bar!

You fill all the way up to the rim for 1-1/2 fl. oz. (or a bit more than 40ml) and fill to the kink for 3/4 fl. oz. (or about 20ml). You need not flip the side for different measure, and because of the straight bottom, it is easy to measure 1/2 fl. oz. by underfilling.
Once you "calibrate" yor eye, measuring 1 fl. oz. is also easy.
Note that Amazon description of 2 ounce seems inaccurate.

The maximum capacity is 1-1/2 fl. oz. when filled all the way up to the rim. I wish this was a little larger so that my fingers don't get wet even when I measure this quantity very often. It would also be nice if lines indicating 1 fl. oz. and 1/2 fl. oz. were engraved inside.

If WMF designer (or knockoff manufacturer) reads this, please make my dream jigger under under [price] a piece and I'll buy one right away!!
