I just weighed this scoop empty and it's three pounds. 30 oz. I then weighed it again after filling it with Dicalit brand DE powder and leveling the top with a piece of cardboard. The full scoop weighed 15 pounds in total. 05 oz. I then subtracted the scoop's weight, which was 3. 30 oz. As a result, this scoop has a capacity of 11 people. DE weighs 75 oz, which is about 3/4 pound. I use 8 of these scoops each time I backwash my DE filter because it requires 6 lbs of filter. I hope this has been of assistance. Coffee. LOL!

I was told to use two full scoops of D. by my pool guy. for each of the nine pounds required by my Hayward filter He seemed to know what he was talking about, so I assumed he knew what he was saying. After three years of taking care of my pool and its equipment, I finally noticed that the amount of D. I was using more than I anticipated, assuming the package's weight was accurate according to the label. I became aware that I was increasing my D purchases. I finally weighed-in and realized that I had spent more money than I should have. the D is removed in a scoop of ice cream One full, not compacted, scoop is 3/4 of a pound, as everyone on the Internet has been saying; I'm not talking about a pound and a half here! So, for the past three years, I've been adding six scoops more than I need for my 72 sq. ft. ft. filter!.
I used a permanent marker to record my measurements. It looks like it'll hold up to scooping D. I haven't yet gotten to the compacted powder at the bottom of the box, but I believe I will. It appears to be of assistance. br>For the record, the dimensions on the container are for a grid with a filter surface area of 36 square feet. Although the measurements aren't exact, they'll suffice.
I'm using DE to clean the filter in my swimming pool. I've tried using measuring cups and weight scales before, but I was afraid of over- or under-applying the product. I daydreamed about how this couldn't be any easier, so I went online and found this, which solved my problem. I'm a big fan of products like this that make complex issues seem simple.
This was purchased to be used in the kitchen. I bought it for my horses to use as a grain scoop. I'd been scooping with a coffee can and wanted to switch to something more comfortable. After using it for this purpose for a few times, I quickly realized that the handle is quite uncomfortable after using it for 20 scoops in a row. It has ridges under the handle that dig into your hand, which is unfortunate because it's the ideal size for my needs.
This DE cup has completely transformed my life; it is truly miraculous. I take a scoop of DE from the box and pour it into the cup. After that, I mix the DE with a bucket of water before pouring it into the skimmer. It's incredible how simple it is to work with. It's essentially a cup with a handle for measuring out a pound of DE. It works. There are no issues.
10 dollars for a flimsy piece of plastic that doesn't hold exactly one pound D. (approximately 3/4)br>If you buy Folgers coffee, you get better plastic for free.
It has a handle and a bottom, but no top (AS ADVERTISED!). As a result, I can scoop stuff with it. That's probably all the information anyone looking at a cup review could want. Enjoy.
Okay, I used to use the red Solo cup, but this is a much nicer option that has lasted much longer.
