Measuring Bulb Baster
Measuring Bulb Baster
A bulb baster for basting, injecting, and transferring small amounts of liquid—the kitchen tool that earns its drawer space.
A good baster lives somewhere between a syringe and a turkey baster, sized for precision work in a home kitchen. This RSVP model is the measuring version—marked with volume lines so you know exactly how much liquid you're drawing and dispensing. Perfect for basting, transferring sauce, injecting marinades into meat, or filling small containers.
The bulb is made from soft, food-grade rubber that compresses smoothly without cracking or hardening over time. The glass tube is marked with measurement lines and won't cloud or discolor from acidic liquids like vinegar or lemon juice. The tip is smooth and slightly tapered, so it slides easily in and out of bottles and narrow openings. The bulb diameter is generous enough that you draw liquid quickly without straining.
Unlike disposable plastic squeeze bottles, this baster is permanent. You can use it hundreds of times over years without replacement. The rubber bulb softens slightly with use but doesn't degrade. If the rubber ever does weaken after a decade or more, RSVP sells replacement bulbs, so you're not discarding the whole tool.
