  • Truly Versatile: Handles hot stock and  cold liquids equally well without risk of cracking.
  • A Bit Weighty: Its solid build means it's heavier than plastic alternatives.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Blossom Bakery in Bath was struggling with inconsistent batch sizes for their signature custards. Their old plastic jugs were cloudy, stained, and  had faded markings, leading to guesswork and  variable product quality.

"We switched to the Pyrex P587 jugs and  the difference was night and  day. The markings are spot on, they come out of the dishwasher looking brand new, and  they just feel solid and  professional. It's one less thing to worry about during a frantic morning bake."

Robert Finch – Head Pastry Chef

By implementing this professional measuring jug, The Blossom Bakery virtually eliminated inconsistencies, leading to a noticeable improvement in product quality and  a reduction in ingredient waste.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, give it a good wash with warm, soapy water and  rinse well.
  • Always check for any chips or cracks that may have occurred during transit.
  • Familiarise your team with the multi-unit markings to ensure everyone benefits from the clear measurements.

Keeping It Going

  • This jug is tough, but it's still glass! Avoid dropping it or banging it against hard surfaces like steel worktops.
  • For a perfect clean every time, place it securely in your commercial dishwasher.
  • Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the glass over time.
  • Store on a stable shelf, ideally not stacked, to prevent it from being knocked over.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Measuring Jug

Not sure what fits best in your kitchen? Choosing the right measuring tool can make all the difference. Here are a few key pointers to help you decide.

Material Matters

Glass is brilliant as it’s non-porous, meaning it won't stain or absorb odours from strong ingredients. It's ideal for prepping both savoury and  sweet items without flavour transfer.

Capacity is Key

A 1-litre jug is a fantastic all-rounder for most tasks, but think about your menu. If you make huge batches of soup, a larger jug might be a useful addition to your toolkit.

Read the Markings

Look for jugs with clear, embossed or printed markings that won't fade after countless cycles in the dishwasher. Having multiple units (ml, pints, oz) on one jug saves time and  reduces clutter.

Handle with Confidence

A strong, ergonomic handle is a non-negotiable safety feature, especially when you're pouring hot liquids or carrying a full, heavy jug across a busy kitchen floor.

Kitchen Workflow

Is it dishwasher and  microwave safe? A 'yes' to both means less washing up by hand and  fewer pans to clean, speeding up your entire prep and  service process.
