One of the reviewers indicated that these worked for both wet and dry ingredients. How is this possible as there are two types of measuring products. This type [for dry normally] and Pyrex, etc. for wet.

these measuring cups work for wet and dry because there are so many measuring cup sizes you can just pour the liquid into the proper size.

I've really enjoyed this measurer. It's made of nice thick plastic and has held-up really well. To answer your question, I boiled a cup of water and poured it in the container and the experiment was seamless. It held the water until room temp and nothing out of the ordinary occurred.

I tested the 1 cup measure from this set with the OXO Angled 2-cup measuring cup and it was exactly one cup liquid. Haven't tested dry measure yet against anything else but so far, so good on all of the baking.

Pyrexware. Isn't it awesome? Did you get the Amazon price? For most thimngs, we use the daily-use Pfaltazgraffs.

Not a problem using it in glass cup (unless very thin glass!) --more the size and shape of cup that is important...has to be deep so does not splatter. I found a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup worked perfect.

Yes, two different units and use different strips. The Next is the more recent unit. I've used both and they work well. I think the Next may use a slightly smaller sample.

1 cup pyrex measuring cup works perfectly. Pyrex Prepware 1-Cup Measuring Cup, Clear with Red Measurements

I have used it in a stock pot to blend soup. But I tried it in a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup with just a little bit of liquid in it and it splattered everywhere.

I would consider these 'dry cups'. You can also use them to measure liquids. The quality is excellent!!

I suspect Pyrex is Pyrex no matter where you go to purchase it. Since I did not buy these at Macy's there is no way I can address this question, other than to say Pyrex is sold in many different stores.

Guys you can't convert measurements of weight into measurements of volume in a general sense because it depends on the substance being weighed and measured. A tsp of flour probably weighs a bit less than a tsp of led pellets. You must experiment with each particular substance as there is no general conversion that will be accurate. Most charts I have seen are referencing water which works very well when you are weighing and measuring water. HA powder? Not so much.

I don't know the difference between different types of glass, but like Pyrex, I imagine similar caution needs to be taken. I wouldn't use the dish on top of the stove nor would I put a hot dish in cool water, ways that I myself broke 2 Pyrex dishes.

i believe M Dabal had the best answer. they are different and used for different things. they are not interchangable.

Don't think this is good idea because even mixing a small amount (1/2oz) could produce heat reaction..You should always use the correct harder with the correct resin.. They are all different..

It doesn't measure down to 1/2 Oz, but does 1 1/2.I looked at all my equip, & couldn't find less than these at 1 Oz, and my others start at 2 Oz.I did play around with both beakers I own, and you could make your own line w/a laundry marker. It took about a minute of comparing both-add & deduct 1 oz of water between two beakers until both beakers lined up at the half Oz point. If you need to measure for cooking, probably ok. For medications, I would cheek local pharmacy for measuring spoon that's adjustable. Good luck to you!

I'm not sure, I only mix what I need for each application around my home. I have not texted the effectiveness of the product premixed if left in a container. I do not have the product label with me at the moment. I will check and if it states a time frame I will let you know.

I had this happen with a different pyrex product. What I found when researching it is that pyrex used to use borosilicate glass which was better able to withstand temperature changes (during each use and after repeated usage) but that they now use soda lime glass in many of their products which is less able to deal with temp. changes and is cheaper. We are very careful with our pyrex dishes now and we seek out dishes made of borosilicate glass for items we use often. Exploding pyrex has become more common because of the type of glass and common kitchen habits (often used because of the durable pyrex name) It has nothing to do with what ingredients the dish contained.
