Abstract: A measured powder dispenser has a hopper feeding powder down into a measured dispensing mechanism. The measured dispensing mechanism has an inlet and an outlet and a measuring container operable therebetween. The measuring container is rotatably engaged about a rotation axis generally orthogonal to an inlet axis of the inlet such that an exterior surface thereof moves across the inlet when the measuring container rotates. The measuring container has an interior volume adjustable measurement chamber recessed within the exterior surface such that, in use, at a first rotational position, the measurement chamber aligns with the inlet to accept a measured amount of powder therein from the power container and, when rotated to a second rotational position, the exterior surface seals across the inlet and the measurement chamber aligns with the outlet to dispense the measured amount of powder therefrom.
