Bottling Sugar
I just bottled a bunch of sugar by scooping up a paper cup's worth, squishing the cup to a point, and pouring it through a small funnel into a jar (we sell in 4 oz. and 8 oz. shaker jars). It's a pain to say the least. Does anyone make a dispenser where you could pour maybe 5-10 pounds of sugar into it and have some sort of lever, spigot, etc. to open up the device to allow sugar to flow into the container. I'm envisioning a giant funnel of sorts.
