Precision Pour: Discovering the Different Types of Jiggers
In the realm of mixology, precision is paramount. A jigger, with its dual-measurement design, is the quintessential tool that aids bartenders in measuring ingredients accurately to craft a perfectly balanced cocktail. Here, we delve into the different types of jiggers and how they contribute to the art of cocktail making.
1. Standard Jigger
The Standard Jigger is the most common type, usually made of stainless steel with two opposing conical measures, typically measuring 1.5 ounces on one side and 1 ounce on the other. The design ensures a steady grip and precise pouring.
2. Japanese Jigger
Characterized by its elegant and tall design, the Japanese Jigger offers a more precise measurement with its narrower shape. It's known for its aesthetic appeal and the variety of measurements it comes in.
3. Bell Jigger
The Bell Jigger is a hybrid of the standard and Japanese jiggers, boasting an elegant bell-shaped design. The wider middle provides a comfortable grip, while the narrow top aids in accurate pouring.
4. Double Jigger
The Double Jigger, similar to the standard jigger, has two measuring units but comes in a variety of sizes, allowing bartenders to measure different volumes accurately.
5. Adjustable Jigger
With a sliding measure, the Adjustable Jigger allows bartenders to alter the volume being measured, offering flexibility in a single tool. It's perfect for recipes that require non-standard measurements.
6. Multi-Level Jigger
The Multi-Level Jigger features multiple stepped measures in a single tool, providing various measurement options and reducing the need for multiple jiggers.
7. Oxo Angled Measuring Jigger
The Oxo Angled Measuring Jigger offers a unique design with an angled measure, allowing bartenders to view the volume from above without needing to check it at eye level.
