Abstract: A device is provided for measuring and dispensing granular or powdered materials, such as coffee or powdered detergent. The device includes a body member which defines a hopper for receiving the granular material. The hopper includes a discharge opening and a discharge port disposed below the discharge opening. A dispensing cylinder is rotatably mounted in the body member between the hopper discharge opening and the discharge port. The cylinder is rotatable between a normally shut position and a fill position. The cylinder includes a first non-movable circumferential section which is maintained below the hopper discharge opening and the normally shut position of the cylinder. The cylinder includes a second movable circumferential section which is disposable below the discharge opening and the fill position of the cylinder.
