Do you know the meaning of the stamped number on an ice cream scoop? H.K., La Mesa, Calif.

Ice cream scoops also are known as portion scoops or dishers. The number either stamped into the handle or on the release mechaism indicates the number of level scoopfuls per quart. The higher the number, the smaller the scoop capacity. For example:
- #6=5 ozs.
#20=1.75 ozs. #30= 1ozs. #60=0.5 ozs.
