Question

What are the dimensions of the 100ml, 250ml, and 600ml beakers, and will the 250ml and 600ml beakers fit on a digital scale with a base size of 6.1 cm wide x 5.3 cm long?

The staff provided the following beaker dimensions:

  • 100ml: 4.3 cm diameter, 7.4 cm height
  • 250ml: 6.2 cm diameter, 9.9 cm height
  • 600ml: 7.6 cm diameter, 12.2 cm height

Answer

Regarding your questions:

  1. Ingredient Temperature: As mentioned by C7, most ingredients are sensitive to heat. If no specific temperature is mentioned in the instructions, it's generally best to mix them at room temperature. If heating is necessary, it should be gentle and not prolonged.
  2. Beaker Dimensions: The staff provided the following diameters:

    • 250ml beaker: 6.2 cm
    • 600ml beaker: 7.6 cm

    Your digital scale base is 6.1 cm wide and 5.3 cm long.

    Comparing the beaker diameters to your scale base dimensions:

    • The 250ml beaker (6.2 cm diameter) is wider than both the width (6.1 cm) and length (5.3 cm) of your scale base.
    • The 600ml beaker (7.6 cm diameter) is also wider than both dimensions of your scale base.

    Therefore, based on the dimensions provided, neither the 250ml nor the 600ml beaker will fit completely on your scale base. The 100ml beaker (4.3 cm diameter) would fit, but you specifically asked about the 250ml and 600ml sizes.
