Review on πŸ₯— Large Tofu Press - Trobing Tofu Presser for Optimal Water Removal and Enhanced Flavor and Texture, Trobing Tofu Drainer with Clean Design for Effortless DIY Tofu Making, Dishwasher Safe (Dimensions: 5.9"x4.7"x2.16") by Jack Boldt

It fits colanders and food strainers

I got this device to press tofu hard, super hard and super hard so that later I can cut and make wafer sheets. I can actually fit 2 tofu rocks when shrink-wrapped. It does a very reasonable job of pressing the tofu without messing up towels, weights and the like - yay! I had no problem capping the device with two 2" blocks of tofu in a press, but I placed it on the floor so I could get enough body weight pressure behind the lid. The empty, long sides of the feed tray bend after 4-5 pushes. It still works as intended and there is no problem installing the middle tofu holder/drain into the water trap. I wonder if presses with two springs can work better, but I don't know since this one only has one central spring. . I've found that while it's easier to slice lengthwise before pressing, pressing sliced tofu feels a little wobbly. That's because closing the block is a bit like a saw with a central spring. So I resorted to slicing after pressing because although the tofu is harder, pressing feels better.

Pros
  • Easy and efficient squeezing: It gets the job done with no mess, no fuss and unlike some other versions you don't have to constantly tighten the screws to remove more water. Just add your tofu the night before or in the morning before you go to work and it's ready to eat when you get home.
Cons
  • There are shortcomings
