So no need "pull out" I can access For the container, I use a type of transparent container which can be found in SEIYU, it's specially for rice. there's even a small compartment on the lid to put dried chilli, to keep the rice bug at bay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I'll run over to SEIYU and take a look at this container.For Chunky Monkey, I think you need to decide how often you need to access your 'fan tong'. 80-20 rule will probably determine if you want to spend more to improve on your method to access your grains Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Homeowner 1 Report post Posted June 30, 2007 Hi. Wanted to put the picture of my dispenser here, but can't seem to get through to imageshack. There is a picture of it in my t-blog though, post 257: http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?sh...7067&st=240It is a 12.5 kg Tupperware rice dispenser. I have it on the countertop. 1 swipe to dispense rice. Each swipe is 1 cup. I pour any excess rice back into the dispenser. Life time warranty. Now on offer at $94. Bought it for $90 from a Tupperware shop closing sale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lynzi 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2007 Mine is also the rice dispenser from Tupperware. Very easy to dispense and also fill up rice. Even if we top up the rice, the ones from the previous batch will be used first as the dispenser is at the bottom. My mum in law is a Tupperware supplier. The rice dispenser is on sale now. If anyone interested can pm me your details and I can order it for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cos my house the kitchen very small, so the countertop very precious Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, I juz called my mum in law. Apparently its out of stock now. Have to wait at least until mid August for the new stock. Btw, I did not put mine on the counter top as I prefer the uncluttered look. So I placed it in the kitchen cabinet under my sink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
