Powder Scoops?

5 replies

Is it possible to buy a scoop for the powder which measures the amount I need i.e. 7oz, rather than having to measure 7 1oz scoops into each bottle?

I'm sure I've heard of these but can't find them anywhere.

Never heard of it, but have more scoop related queries!
I was wondering does anyone sterilise the scoop? Also when you tip formula into bottle the powder sticks in bottom of scoop & builds up in so eventually you r not tipping a full scoop into bottle. Anyone else add a dab extra to compensate for this.

different scoops are different sizes between brnads and even levels of formula within a brand so you wouldnt get a scoop that would do every powder.

I have found this for you but it is pricey.

p.s. no I didnt sterilise the scoop as the powder is not sterile anyway so it is pointless.

I used to measure the powder into the Tommee Tippee pots in advance, then tip the pot into the bottle, thus solving the sticky issue. It used to drive me insane! But yes, also added an extra dab when using the scoop.

Oh dear Seona. My uncle will be gutted, he is in the process of inventing that thing!
