Questions & Answers

What are the results of squeezing loose tea leaves through it?

Thanks for this mini strainer! I'm very happy with it! Whenever I strain loose tea leaves, I don't have any issues with this strainer. It's durable, looks good, feels good, and is just the right size. I highly

How much rust does it have?

My own has not yet happened. Since it should not rust, I think it is stainless steel.

Does this method work to remove blackberry seeds from thick smoothies?

That's a huge possibility, but I'm afraid I don't believe Blackberry seeds are not the problem instead, it is the consistency of the smoothie that concerns me. A strainer like this has a mesh so fine that the holes are roughly 1/32 to 1/64 of an inch apart.

There are often a lot of very fine particles in Turkish tea. There is almost dust in here how good is this strainer at catching it? Would you, if it wasn't for this strainer, do something else?

The coffee I make has very fine particles that pass through even my best and finest strainers, but I've discovered that the brown industrial-looking coffee grounds have a size much larger than the tiny coffee particles. Using brown paper hand towels (such as those found in public bathrooms) is a convenient way to strain up even the tiniest To strain takes a little bit longer than to go through a sieve, but not by much. In my case, I first put mine through the sieve to catch all the particles, and then put a single layer of brown industrial paper towel on top of Worked like a charm for me. (However, I don't think you can purchase this type of paper towel without buying a whole case for $30 or so. In my opinion, that is not a very big deal since I use them as paper towels 95% of the time rather than white-colored ones. You can buy them cheaply or you can buy them more expensively. They're the ones at the store that come in rolls. This is a win-win situation for me The winner is. In addition to growing mung beans in them, I also sprout beans in them. It was estimated that 95% of paper towel brands sold at stores allowed roots to grow through them, but these do not, which made sprouting much easier when it was time to harvest. I use white paper towels when I need something quickly to absorb moisture.

Take it to the store to make chai tea! Despite what some people think, it is really hard to find mesh strainers with a very The spices and remnants leave behind in regular strainers when I make chai tea, so I always use fine mesh It wasn't working even when two strainers were stacked in front of each other
5/5

A strainer of this type would filter out most things, with only the finer things (for example, cinnamon) remaining. Would have liked to have bought one sooner rather than all that junk for $1 that ended up rusting (or not working) and ending up getting thrown out. A second one would be nice!.

There are several uses for this device, including catching seeds in lemon juice
5/5

There is no doubt that this work is of high quality The product is designed to be sturdy and useful, as well as being Other users have noted that it is useful for straining tea leaves, powdered sugar, and It comes in handy for many things, but I grab it most often when juicing a lemon to catch the seeds. I have never really needed to use a reamer when I cut - If you just cut a lemon in half and squeeze it by hand, I'm sure it's not too difficult. So you don't have to improvise by squeezing a fork into a strainer, dig the seeds out of the lemon by cutting it with a knife, or fish the seeds out of your food after trying all of these strategies. The next thing I know, I'm making a citron pressé at the drop of a hat as if I were living the high life at some ritzy-looking restaurant. I'm in pants at the In addition to being useful for simple tasks like this, a device that works well for this one purpose can also be used for other small tasks as well, as opposed to sitting in a drawer waiting for one specific usage. The strainer is well designed, well made, and easy to use, as is typical of most OXO products.

This is a great product! This is an incredibly good value! I have finally found a tea strainer that checks all the boxes for me I have tried numerous ones but this one is actually perfect
5/5

)
OXO continues its high level of product performance with this strainer. It is used every day. Tea is something I make several times a day and this strainer does a great job. I have used other strainers in the past and they strain tea leaves, but cleaning them is difficult. Some have started to discolor as they age but the one I have on hand looks shiny and It is definitely recommended to use the.

It is much better to strain tea with a 3" cocktail oxo strainer
3/5

This cup is perfect for single servings of tea, but it is not deep enough to accommodate single cups. Tea leaves won't be able to bloom properly if they are squeezed into a small space, and this is bad for the taste. A cocktail strainer is much more useful than a cocktail umbrella. There is the same width, but it is deeper, so the tea leaves are exposed to more water and have a greater surface area to grow in.

5/5

A very well made product, as I always find with OXO. You will need to check what three inches in diameter looks like if you plan to buy one so that you know this is the right size. It is only three inches long and three inches wide, so it is small. I have a few helpful tips for writers As well as using the strainer to sprinkle flour on a stone counter when I am working dough, I also use it for sprinkling flour on the counter when I am working with pasta. The coating is more evenly distributed with a thing coated with it.

The strainer is great for small tasks
5/5

My favorite thing about this strainer is how small it is. If you like to strain drinks, catch lemon seeds, or even strain anything into jars, there is no way to go wrong with this. There is a good feel to it, and I think it will last a long time. Please hit that 'Helpful' button below if you found this review even the slightest bit helpful! Please accept my sincere thanks.

I liked the cup of coffee very much
5/5

As far as camp coffee goes, it works just fine. You'll need 2 mugs or a mug and a Pour boiling water into the first mug or pot. Once the water is hot, remove from the heat and add a scoop of Allow it to sit for a few minutes while you stir it. In a second mug, place a strainer over the first mug and pour the contents of the first mug through it. I liked the cup of coffee very much. There is a good build quality to the strainer and the screen is very fine to be able to catch really small items.

The coffee grounds problem is a thing of the past
5/5

A percolator is how I make coffee when I am When it comes to percolators, grounds are at fault. My coffee does not taste good with coffee grounds in it. Except for Amazon, it is difficult or impossible to find filters. Nevertheless, paper filters will fail should they be exposed to moisture, as in With this strainer, I was able to resolve all my issues. My method of pouring the coffee grounds out of the decanter is to place it over the mouth of a large glass decanter and allow the coffee to percolate in that way. As a result of the screened coffee in the decanter, I got a clean cup of coffee, and it stayed hot as well.
