Hello, Has anybody tested the accuracy of these cups? Specifically, does the 1C hold 250mL?

Finally tried it. Filled orange 1 cup almost to brim with water, poured into clear dual scale cup. Meniscus right at 250 ml, a tad over 1 cup.

I cannot answer the part about 250 ml but I do know they run a little bigger than other measuring cups by just a shade....

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.

Yes, I have measured them by weighing water in them on an accurate scale (1 ml = 1 gram). The 250 ml cup is spot-on by actual measurement.NOTE: 250 ml = 1 Australian/New Zealand cup. 1 U.S. "legal" cup is 240 ml. A U.S. "customary" cup is 236.6 ml.

It holds a bit more than 250mL if you overload it. If you fill it just to the pouring spout, it is 250mL. Don't use it for measuring very precise jobs like pharmaceutical. Excellent for baking and kitchen.

the cup parts are 4" diameter (side to side). I dont have any 1 liters here so I'm not sure. Hope that helps :)

These are 30 ml cups - too large to accurately measure 1.3 ml. As an RN, I would advise you to use a marked 2 or 3 ml syringe which your doctor can prescribe for you.

How accurate? (one way to check is to put the purest water you have: distilled, filtered, etc... to the mL marks and then calibrate your digital scale with the empty glassware, then add the water. 300 mL of pure water should be close to 300 g, 700 mL ~=700g etc... other measuring cups are reported to be not very accurate.

Well... I just measured it. 250 ml of water from my Pyrex will overflow the metal cup. So the metal measuring cup is an actual cup, not 250 ml. I use my Pyrex for liquids &#9786;

The cups I use are 1 cup measure. I leave a rim to testif it's too hot to drink right away.

I really don't know..I never got that far to check the accuracy of the cups and spoons..reason being, the cup edges are so sharp they are dangerous. Trust me, they will cut you bad. I threw them away in the metal recycling box, so no one could hurt around here, including me.

I just use a cup to fill it up to the 500ML. I would guess it holds close to 2cps, but it will last the entire night.

They measure pretty exact to .25 I use them in several different types of the double walled insulated cups and they fit well. You will probably need to measure the old water bottle straw if you still have it or the hole it fits in to be sure. Hope this helps.

I just checked for metrics - I use a little less than 100 ml and it foams perfect! Yes, I've rewhipped on the rare occasion that I want a second cup, and refrigerated until the next day (& rewhipped).

I can't say I've had this problem with these measuring cups (or others I've owned). I agree with Dale's answer that a 'confident' pour makes a difference.

The 1 cup measuring cup I have does not fit into the mouth of these jars. I find myself using 1/2 cups instead or pouring into the cup. My hand does fit in on its own, but I don't think that's what you were asking (just in case).

I think, they are not real keurig. I made a comparison to a real one and they are slightly different. Enough to leak some liquid.

Richard I'm sorry I missed your question. Each stick has markings for 1/4 1/2 etc to one cup

I don't think it is suppose to be accurate more of an estimation I think before the last cup. I know how much coffee I have by the amount of water I poured in.

I measured it and the closest I can get is 1/4 inch. I have used them in many different cups and they work in all of them, including the double wall ones that come with the screw on top with the straw.

Let me tell you what I did. I weighed the co2 bottle when I first got it. Then, after about four 1/2 liter sodas I reweighed it. I do three squirts of the co2 about 1 second each squirt. This results in a well carbonated drink. According to my calculations you should get somewhere between 65 and 69 1/2 liter sodas. I have had mine for about a couple of months and we use it regularly and when I checked it yesterday I have used a little more than half of the bottle. I hope this helps. Also, about getting it refilled at a hobby shop: be sure to ask if it is food grade co2. A lot of hobby shops add an oil to the co2 to help keep the paint guns lubricated Let me tell you what I did.
