Wagensteiger Stainless Steel Measuring Cups

These lightweight, indestructible measuring cups from Wagensteiger will put your chipped, clunky glass ones to shame. Stainless steel is our preferred material for almost all cooking tools due to its durability and ease of use, and that’s exactly what you get here: These won’t chip, etch or crack, and they’re built to survive the occasional tumble off the counter. Sturdy stainless steel can handle big temperature changes, which means you can take a sauce from stovetop to freezer or pour smoking-hot oil over chilies and aromatics without worrying about your measuring cup exploding. (But don’t mistake “sturdy” for “heavy”–despite their robust build, these are still lightweight and easy to maneuver.) We also love that these cups are taller and narrower than comparable glass ones, which helps contain splatters as you immersion blend a batch of mayo or whisk up a quick vinaigrette. And when you’re ready to serve, their solid, well-balanced handles and narrow spouts make pouring clean and precise. Best of all, both metric and imperial measurements are stamped into the interior surface, which means they won’t rub off or fade away in the wash—ever. Available in two sizes—500 milliliters (just over 2 cups) and one liter (just over 4 cups)—so you can measure a wide range of volumes easily and accurately.
