    摘要: The present disclosure provides a volumetric measurement based apparatus for dispensing powdered spice. The apparatus comprises a storage section comprising a funnel shaped section with the narrowed part of the funnel towards the side of dispensation of powdered spice. The apparatus also comprises an outer hole that is misaligned with the first hole, and in between the two holes a lever is configured to slide, with the lever having a slot. The lever is coupled to any driving mechanism that enables angular motion of the lever. When the slot and the first hole are aligned, powdered spice flows from the first hole to the second hole. The lever can then move, and when the slot is aligned with the outer hole, the powdered spice is dispensed. The quantity of powdered spice dispensed is a function of amount of overlap of the holes.
