cmog:The first Pyrex measuring cup in this post never made it to production. Designer Dennis Younge led the revolutionary redesign of the measuring cup and opened the bottom of the cup’s handle, which allowed it to be stacked and maximize storage in the kitchen. The new measuring cup was tested by consumers in the Pyrex Test Kitchen before being released to the general public.
