In a professional kitchen, it's often the simplest tools that make the biggest difference. The Pro-Measures jug is one of those. It’s not flashy, but its rugged build and  genuinely readable markings mean it just works, day in, day out. It feels solid in your hand, and  the pour is spot on—no annoying dribbles down the side.

  • Built to Last: The hot-stamped markings won't fade like printed ones after repeated washing.
  • A Bit Bulky: Its 5L size might be a bit cumbersome for smaller prep stations.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Flour Pot Bakery in Bristol was constantly replacing its large measuring jugs. The team found that cheaper models would either crack under the strain of daily use or their printed markings would fade in the pot wash, leading to inconsistent batches.

"We were going through jugs like there was no tomorrow. The Pro-Measures jug is in a different league. It's solid, the markings are crystal clear, and  it’s just one less thing to worry about during a hectic morning bake."

David Chen – Head Baker

After switching to the Pro-Measures FD329, The Flour Pot Bakery has completely eliminated the need for replacement jugs, saving money and  reducing its overall plastic waste.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Give it a good wash with warm, soapy water before its first use to remove any residue from manufacturing.
  • While it is a heat resistant measuring jug, it should not be used on direct heat sources like a hob or in a microwave.
  • It’s good to go straight out of the box – no assembly needed!

Keeping It Going

  • Completely dishwasher safe for easy and  hygienic cleaning in a commercial environment.
  • To keep the markings pristine, avoid using abrasive wire scourers directly on them.
  • Rinse immediately after measuring strongly coloured ingredients (like tomato or turmeric) to prevent staining.
  • Store it upside down on a drying rack to ensure it airs out completely between uses.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Measuring Jug

Not sure if this is the right size for your needs? Here are a few things to consider when choosing a commercial measuring jug.

Capacity vs. Use

Consider what you'll measure most. A 5 litre polypropylene measuring jug is brilliant for bulk prep, but a smaller 1L or 2L might be handier for daily sauces.

Material Matters

Polypropylene is durable, lightweight, and  chemical-resistant. Stainless steel is even tougher but heavier, while polycarbonate offers great clarity but can be more brittle.

Readability is Key

Look for jugs with clear, embossed, or stamped markings. Printed lines can fade quickly with commercial use and  harsh detergents, leading to costly errors.

Handle and  Spout

A comfortable, ergonomic handle is a must, especially on a large jug. A well-designed spout prevents messy spills and  product waste, saving you money.

Heat Resistance

If you're measuring hot liquids like stocks, soups, or syrups, ensure you choose a jug specifically rated as heat resistant to prevent warping or cracking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this measuring jug dishwasher safe?

A: Absolutely. Its heavy-duty polypropylene construction is designed to withstand the high temperatures and  detergents of commercial dishwashers.

Q: Are the measurements in litres and  ounces?

A: Yes, it features clear markings for both metric (litres and  millilitres) and  imperial (fluid ounces) for maximum versatility in any recipe.

Q: Can I use this for measuring cleaning chemicals?

A: Yes, food-grade polypropylene has good resistance to most common cleaning chemicals. Just be sure to rinse it thoroughly before using it for food again.

Q: Is the plastic BPA-free?

A: Yes, as a food-grade polypropylene product, it is completely BPA-free and  safe for all food contact applications.

Q: How accurate are the markings on the Pro-Measures FD329?

A: The raised hot foil stamped increments are manufactured for high accuracy, making it a reliable tool for professional recipe consistency.

Q: Will the handle get hot if I fill it with boiling water?

A: No, the handle is ergonomically designed to remain cool to the touch, ensuring safe handling even when the jug contains hot liquids.

Q: Is this professional 5L measuring cup stackable?

A: Due to its large, sturdy handle and  prominent spout, it isn't designed to stack neatly inside other identical jugs.

Q: Does the clear plastic stain easily with things like curry sauce?

A: Like most plastics, strongly coloured ingredients can cause slight discolouration over time. Rinsing the jug immediately after use is the best way to minimise this.

What Customers Are Saying

More Than Just Markings: Why Hot Foil Stamping Matters

Ever had a measuring jug where the lines and  numbers rub off after a few hot washes in the dishwasher? That's usually because they're just printed on. The Pro-Measures FD329 measuring cup uses a process called hot foil stamping. Think of it like getting a tattoo for your jug instead of drawing on it with a marker pen. The markings are physically pressed into the polypropylene with heat and  a coloured foil, creating raised, permanent increments that you can actually feel. This means they will never fade, smudge, or disappear, ensuring you get perfectly accurate measurements for years to come, not just for a few months.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Commercial Kitchens: Perfect for accurately measuring stocks, sauces, and  soups in bulk for busy service periods.
  • Bakeries & Patisseries: Essential for large-batch mixing of batters, custards, and  fillings where precision is key.
  • Schools & Care Homes: A durable and  safe option for institutional catering needing a reliable large kitchen measuring jug.
  • Craft Breweries & Distilleries: Ideal for measuring ingredients and  liquids accurately during the small-batch production process.
