Jugs / buying notes

Jugs: before you order

A serving jug and a graduated measuring jug do different work. Choose the purpose before comparing capacity and material.

For measuring, check the marked units and scale. For serving, look at the handle, spout and the shelf or fridge space where the jug will sit.

Check temperature and cleaning instructions for the exact product. Stated capacity is useful for comparison, but a brim-full jug may be awkward to carry or pour.

Keep these details together

• Capacity
• Serving or measuring
• Material and care
