I misplaced the measuring cup, can I use a regular measuring cup?

A full rice cup (RC) = 3/4 standard measuring cup (SMC)a 3/4 RC= just over 1/2 SMCa 1/4 RC=just shy of 1/4 SMC or 9 T-spoons

I've never used the measuring cup that came with it. I put a cup and a half of rice in and two cups of water and it turns out perfect every time.

From the manual: "The measuring cup included adheres to rice industry standards (180mL) and is not equal to one U.S. cup." 180mL is less than one US cup, most measuring cups have US and mL. You can order a replacement measuring cup for $3.00 from: http://www.aroma-housewares.com/ (don't know shipping cost) I use this rice cooker several times a week, the rice is perfect,clean-up is fast.

The measuring cup which comes with this product is equivalent to 3/4 of a standard measuring cup.

Yes, but the ratio of rice to water will be different than before. 1 cup of rice with a regular measuring cup is more than one cup of rice from the measuring cup it came with. I would try to re-order a cup first, but if not use a regular measuring cup and make sure to add a little extra water.

Have no idea - just beware these cups are small, not what I consider "standard" size.

This cup is too big and wide for measuring 1/2 and 2/3 cups precisely. Even if the container had such markings, I doubt I would use it for these measurements. If it doesn't need to be exact, then I would convert and 'eyeball' it.

Standard cups work just fine but the place that the cups sits on is kind if small so you may want to use a more slender cup.

The Norpro Stainless Steel measuring cup (one-cup) does NOT fit into a Ball jar. The one-half cup easily does. I use it often to measure the 1/2 cup of bean sprouts that I put into a Ball Jar for sprouting. I would also point out that these measuring cups are "top drawer" (excuse the pun). Solid construction. I like the feel of the "weight". I like the seemingly-at-first odd shape - I understand the engineering now. This is a 5-star+ product.

Unfortunately No, I scribed a small line that marked the 1 and 2 cup measurement. I love this coffee maker.

I doubt it. At that point, I'd just replace it with a new cup. My cups have lasted me a few years already - and still work great - so it's worth the investment.

no but i measure my coffee by using a measured scoop and i believe that markings would be hard to read.

This type of cup is meant for dry measures only. Liquid measures will not be accurate

I have not had this measuring cup that long, so I can not answer your question.

The plastic cup that comes with the cooker is equivalent to a 3/4 cup measuring cup. There are no other cups.

I'm sorry but I have not used the measuring cup for that reason. I plan to try the cup again, because if you don't use something, it is just hit and miss. I really like the egg cooker, it is less messy and I love the poached egg unit!

I don't think so, the regular cups fit in there perfectly, so I don't think any other sizes would work.

The cups I use are 1 cup measure. I leave a rim to testif it's too hot to drink right away.

I have a one cup glass measuring cup. I can fit it into the largest canister. But I have a smaller scoop that I leave in the canister instead. It just makes it easier on me that way.

No. This measuring cup (the 8 cup version) is so large that the first mark is 2 Cups! It's pretty low on the side, there's just that much volume from side to side.

wow. I've never used the measuring cup. I always kept the same method for long grain rice. Using your index finger the water level should be to the first knuckle or the line on your finger. This has worked for over 50 years and even with the Cuckoo. You can google milliliter to cup conversion for the exact unit of measurement. Hope this helps.
