Napier Jigger Cocktail Measuring Cup

And stretch goal reached!

I’m wondering though weather the copper Napier will turn brownish (copper oxide) or green (copper carbonate) after repeated use.

Just backed for the copper jigger, as I was confident that you will make the next stretch goal. I really need metric every thing else is pretty but useless �
When will I be able to pick the metric version? In the survey or do I need to do something before?

I’ve done $65 for 3 sets of the stainless steel industrial cups. If I need to add more shipping (another $10) just cue me please.

Is it possible to make 2 pledges? I’ve ordered (pledged toward) the ‘2 silver jigger’ level but I’d like the copper one as well.
Thank you,
I’m so happy that your campaign has garnered so much support!
I wish you much success! Yours,
Kirsten Berger Hunt

Been in the fence on this one. Finally gave in for the copper jigger and can't wait!!

Just a FYI... I added the $25 to my pledge for the shirt

Hey Everyone! We posted an update yesterday with a lot of announcements - be sure to check it out. We went over: -- New Reward Level / Add-On: Gold Jigger T-Shirt
-- Kickstarter LIVE Countdown: Monday 16th at 6:30 PM Pacific: Online Happy Hour + Q&A
-- A message for International Backers who are getting nervous about our stretch goal (don't worry, we're confident we're going to make it - read the update for WHY) Also, @Samantha, we're working on possible post-campaign add-ons, but you can add-on now by increasing your pledge by $20 for the 2-pack (see our FAQ for detailed instructions) @Gowtham - YES! you'll be able to choose from oz and milliliters, and you can definitely get one of each. @Pandarian & @Aaron - haha! Thanks for bringing some humor along ;)

Metric??.....Dirty Canadians!.....Oh wait i am One! Stop drinking Labatt Blue for a night. Make some fancy girly drinks ya beard wearing mofos!!

Will it be possible to add on the 2-pack, after the campaign?

If you guys hit the 50K mark and I'm sure you will do,then can I choose one oz Jigger and one ml Jigger? I've backed for 2 Jiggers currently

So....I’ve got Al Green playing in the background. The lights are low. My lady friend wants another drink. She reaches for my ‘jigger’ only to grab the wrong measurement system... Oh the horror...!!!! okay maybe when she grabs the wrong ‘jigger’ it isn’t all that bad...but I hope you put some thought about making them somewhat different than just numbers (on the inside)... Cheers!!

Thank you! Sad but makes sense.

@Kevin, thanks for preemptively showing your support! Based on our progress so far, I have a GREAT feeling about hitting our stretch goal. :)

I’ve got to admit. I backed the jigger but will only stay on if we reach the SG for the metric one. As a European I have no use for one with imperial measures.

Hey Backers! Thanks for helping us pass the $40K mark - only $10K more to hit our Stretch Goal and make the metric jigger! @Jeremy, we're only offering the Industry 2-pack as a set right now of the same two jiggers; because of the scale that this project is reaching, splitting the 2-pack up could cause some challenges during the fulfillment stage. And we pride ourselves on NOT making mistakes during the fulfillment stage! ;) @Pandarian - you've got a great point; the metric and imperial jiggers will be really similar, with the numbers being the main visual differentiatior. But, to answer @David's question - we want to ensure accuracy in both versions of the jigger, and the conversion from ounces to milliliters is not a perfect 1:30 ratio. That's one of the problems we have with jiggers that print both oz and ml on the same lines - one set of measurements is sure to be off. Even though it's a slight difference, it makes a difference to us - I mean, if we were ever going to make these jiggers accurate, now would be the time, right?

Hi, beautiful product! But why do yo not put ounce on one side and metric on the other? Even if I live in Sweden and use metric I read and recepies from US/UK books/sites and have a need for ounce. Also it makes the production easier with just one type per color.

For me stackable wouldn’t be an issue. But I would assume one would fit in the other, just not perfectly.

I like the idea of one of each in the stainless steel option but wonder how easily would one be able to differentiate between the metric and US standard jigger? Also would they be still stackable??

Passing question, if we hit $50k stretch goal, would it possible to receive a metric and an imperial jigger at the industry backer pledge?

Alex you can add the stainless by going back to your pledge and adding $20.00. I found the info in the FAQ.

Add a stainless plus copper backer option. I backed the copper and would like to add stainless

@Hazel, at this time the plan is to ship from the US, and international backers will be responsible for any customs (they vary based on what country you're from and unfortunately we don't have much control over it).

Backing this because I love the idea, but I'm only really interested in the metric cup. Shipping is also very expensive. Will these be shipped from the US (i.e. will we have trouble with customs in Europe?)

Thank you to our one THOUSAND backers! That IS a lot of jiggers :) We are carefully considering all our metric measurement options - we will actually be asking for feedback soon from all our international backers on just that- look for the next update this week.

And now we’re there...1000 backers!!! That’s a whole lotta jiggers.

OMG...look how close we are to 1000 backers!!!

Hey! I Became a backer after discovering you might be making a metric version. When you are designing it, please, PLEASE, consider what measurements you are making the steps. For example in Finland the standard measurement is 40ml of hard liquor. Which results in the 45ml measurement shown in the digital renderings to be, well, useless, at least in a professional setting (and in the setting of those who like to adhere to said stupid regulations even in the comfort of their own homes.) Just voicing my personal concerns, not sure if it matters so much with other regions whether its 15, 30, 45, 60ml or something else at 10ml or 20ml intervals. I know, it'd mess a little with the vintage design...

Hey @Daniel and @Harold - it's been an idea, but not an option this time around; we'd probably want to source a different manufacturer who is a silversmith for that. But we never turn down a good suggestion.... It will definitely be a consideration for the future! And our Kickstarter Backers are always the first to know about new developments.

I agree with @Daniel. That is what I initially had hoped the "silver" option was.
I know I would participate in a sterling silver jigger option.

@ creator
have you considered offering a limited edition solid sterling silver jigger?

@James, great question - We usually have a few generous folks every Kickstarter that want to support us in the work we're doing to make great barware, and so we offer them something special as thanks for their patronage. This time around, it's a luxurious cocktail kit that includes both of our cocktail spoons in gold, silver, or copper plated finishes to match the Napier jigger of preference. Currently our spoons are only available in stainless steel (you can find those at www.standardspoon.com).

Would you mind providing a few details about the difference between the "LUXE"-branded items and their "normal" counterparts? Thank you!

Thanks George & Carrie! @Rys and @Doinkydoink - We have learned after a few of these to keep the project as simple as we can (it helps us keep our sanity and not make mistakes later on). The Mixing Glass and Ebony Muddler were launched with our last Kickstarter. You can buy those separately at www.standardspoon.com - and get them much sooner than the Napier Jigger!

So excited for you guys and this beautiful product and all that is to come!

Is there any way to add on individual items for the cocktail kit? For example, I'd like the hammered mixing glass but wouldn't want the muddler.

Any chance the ebony muddler could be added into this project?

@Nick - yep! Shipping is only $5 in the US, and when you order extra jiggers, we're covering the extra shipping. Thanks! Glad to hear your feedback on the other tools - the Ebony muddler is incredible! We are working on getting more Ebony right now; hope to do some other fun stuff with it ;)

Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know we updated the FAQ recently, adding some information about care and cleaning of the silver/copper/gold jiggers, and addressing a concern one backer had about potential copper toxicity (and a link to some great research about it). Thanks to our almost 750 backers that have helped us nearly double our goal in less than two weeks! Cheers, Rachel Eva & Shawn Michael

@Minty - at this time the Industry 2-pack (no handles) is available in stainless steel. The silver, copper, and gold jiggers all have handles, and are listed individually. You can add additional items to your pledge by increasing your pledge amount (see the FAQ for details). Hope that helps! @Pandarian - yes, that's right. A bit on what's behind our choice of finishes: When we set out to re-make the Napier Jigger (which was originally silver-plated), we expanded to also include gold plated and solid copper to make a suite of premium jiggers from the original Napier design (handled). The Industry 2-pack in Stainless Steel is our way of making a really accessible version of the Napier - it will be highly functional, stackable because we removed the handle, and it's in stainless steel for durability, utility, and no-fuss care.

@pandarian, im looking for the sets

@pandarian No, they don’t. It says no handles for stacking purposes.

@Minty...I believe all the non-stainless steel jiggers have handles.

Nevermind � just read the comments below. There are no more packs of the jiggers with handles. Does that mean I cannot purchase? I am comfortable adding to my pledge...

Is it possible to double my pledge of two silver jiggers but change the color to copper?

Backed for $95 for 2 copper and 1 gold, shipping still only $5 then? So $100 total correct (just making sure)? Also, love your work! Have the spoon, mixing glass and the ebony muddler, which I get all kinds of comments on, it just looks so good.

Hey everyone! We just set our stretch goal: If (when!) we make it to $50,000, we'll also make a metric jigger (check out Update #2 for details). Hooray! As we mentioned in the update, and on the Project page, we're still working on the design, and will continue to update the project with new visuals, drawings, and maybe even some renderings in the next few weeks. But our mail goal now is to make it to $50K, and we're nearly halfway there! About adding on to your pledge: We'll be using a great survey tool after the project ends that will make it really easy to designate which version of the jigger you get. Also, if you add extra funds to your pledge now, you'll be able to pick which items they are for during the survey, so there won't be any guessing or mistakes. Check out the FAQ at the end of the project if you're not sure how adding funds on to your pledge works. @Doinkydoink - you can get both the metric and imperial :)
@Harold Isaacs Thanks! And yes - $20 for the Industry 2-Pack + $60 for 2 Copper jiggers, +$10 shipping (to Canada), and there's your $90. Right on!

Great idea for stretch goal. It truly reflect that you do put yourself in the shoes of your consumer. If I increase my pledge for 2 x jigger, I assume that I will be able to opt for one metric and one imperial version during the time of survey?

Hello Creator
I think this project is gorgeous.
Can't wait to receive the reward. I just wanted to make sure if my pledge was correct. I want a pair of stainless jiggers and 2 copper jiggers. I calculated $90. Is this correct?
Thanks

Hey everyone! Thanks so much for all your comments - we are working hard to keep up with suggestions, messages, and our research on a stretch goal (check Monday's update if you need to catch up). @Mike, that's right - to add additional copper jiggers to your pledge, increase your pledge by $30 for each additional jigger. You don't have to add additional shipping (we'll cover that).
