Review on HIC Brands that Cook Nylon Mesh Strainer, 🍳 7-Inch: A Must-Have Kitchen Tool for Efficient Food Straining by Dianne Williams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well! Make sure you choose the right fermentation size

This is a great strainer. I can use it for water kefir without wasting tons of grains and I can use it with milk kefir without clogging it. But I made a mistake; For some reason I figured (why?!) I'd have to get a bigger screen since the 7 inch screen costs about the same as the smaller one. It was stupid. 4 inches wide and in medium sized cereal bowls. A 4 inch strainer would be better for this. I just ordered one. I always order the wrong thing. A strainer the same size as the neck of the jar would be nice, but I don't think all grains will fit without spilling. .Even though this strainer is too big, I can still pour it straight into a regular neck glass without spilling. I just have nowhere to put it and need to aim accurately. I've hand washed and in the dishwasher. and it holds up good. I make milk kefir for my dog, with treehugger milk that has fat floating on it etc and I can usually just rinse the fat off with very hot water and do no harm.

Pros
  • Crossing my fingers
Cons
  • Frequency
