This wouldn't work, but according to http://www.traditionaloven.com/conversions_of_measures/rolled_oats_measures_converter.html it equals 18/100 of a cup or about a 1/5 of a cup.

It has a Grams scale with measurement is sugar and flour. Lowest mark is 30g sugar and 15g flour, not sure where oatmeal would compare as the weights of all are different. A kitchen scale would probably do a better job.

Looking at the measurements on the glass, it does have 15 and 30 grams markings for sugar and flour on it, however they are different for each. It says nothing for oatmeal, so I would suggest a different cup for that. Sorry, I don't know which cup is best for oatmeal.

Yup. I usually use it to measure grams, but it seems to also measure to the milligram fairly well. If you have to be super accurate you may want to also purchase a calibration weight.

The cup has a digital screen that tells you the weight of what you are measuring. You can actually change the type of measurement from wet to dry and it will adjust. It is pretty cool. My husband, daughter and I all use it and like it. We still use the standard pyrex glass measures too.

I have only cooked 1 cup (8 oz. by my measuring cup) of rice at a time and it works fine. They provide a measuring cup (but I use my own), on one side marked by quarters and the other side reading numerical values up to 160. I filled their cup and poured the contents into mine, and it came to 6 oz. according to my cup. I hope this helps!

I carefully filled my 1 cup measure to the brim with water and then poured it into my handy pyrex liquid measuring cup. It came exactly to the 250ml line. g/l! BTW, these are by far the best measuring cups i have ever owned! Love 'em! -greg frohring

Pretty much all measuring cups are based on fluid ounces (volumetric) whether used wet or dry. Measuring to weight would depend on the material and how much it is packed, so to be precise with stuff like flour you will always need a scale.

Because the scale is made outside the USA and caters for a metricated consumer base, the scale is only calibrated in grams. At the end of the day, coffee is coffee no matter how it is weighed - imperial or metric. Once you grasp how many grams of coffee and water to use to meet your taste, it matters not what the "numbers" are on the scale - it's what they mean that is important!

I never thought about it, so I measured my cup and it is not the same as a measuring cup, so I would stick with the cup that came with it. Good question!

Yes. I use a bunch of different sizes of these and have used a scoop in each one. My scoops are always like 1/2 or 1 cup measure cups.

I've done an approximate measurement, and if you go a little bit higher than the "1 cup" mark, it comes out to about 20g (not packed down, but loose). It's misleading because the manual says "10-12g is normally good for one serving", implying that the "1 cup" mark equals 10g, but they don't define how much "one serving" is.

There is no need to calibrate the scale before use. I use the scale to weigh out coffee for my morning brew. The measurement readings change with increases in weight. From 0-200g you're able to measure to the nearest hundredth of a gram (0.01g). From 201-500g your able to measure to the nearest tenth of a gram (0.1g)From 501 - 2000g you're able to measure to the nearest gram (1g)Hope this helps.

? Buy One Cup as in 8 oz. cup or one measuring cup? I got the set of three and love using them because you can stand up and pour in your fluid stopping at the proper line amount without bending over and checking the mark on the side of the cup. Don't know if I answered your question hope I helped.

Hi, Adrian. I never have a need for such a thing but I just tested it for you. I used grains of salt and was able to measure as little as 1/8 oz and 1 gram. I kept adding grains of salt and going back and forth from ounces to grams, and each time it increased by 1/8 oz and 1 gram.

I have a one cup glass measuring cup. I can fit it into the largest canister. But I have a smaller scoop that I leave in the canister instead. It just makes it easier on me that way.

I weighed the amount I normally use to make a cup of coffee. It is approximately between 17 and 22 grams. This is a single cup dripper. It makes the best coffee I've ever made.

Note that when measuring grams, 0.1 grams will display as 1. So to measure 1.2 grams, the display needs to read 12.0. This was very confusing to me at first.

In my experence, this design doesn't properly measure anything. The problem is that you have to thread brittle pasta through a hole that, when filled, measures a specified number of servings.I f you want to measure weight with any such product, then you could measure how many servings are in a pound box and divide that into 16oz.
