Review: extremely valuable tool, if you have use for it - I purchased this a year ago, and continue to be entirely satisfied with it. Using it has made stock making go much faster - the straining part was always the biggest hassle and time drain - so I make my own stock more often now. Cleanup is also much easier than with the multiple strainers and layers of cheese cloth I used to use to end up with this same quality of filtration. If you chill the broth to below 40 degrees F in an ice and salt bath before the final straining into a container, it will end up straining away most of the fat as well, so no need to do an extra step for fat separation. I use a 17 cup Snapware storage container, so that's just over a gallon of stock each time. If you're considering buying one of these, you probably already make your own stock regularly or you would be thinking about spending this much money on a tool like this. If you can afford this item, go ahead and get it. It's expensive, but it really does make a difference. It is large, but that is part of what makes it work so quickly and well. You can pour quickly, straining from one pot to another without any concern about splashing over the edge of, or over-filling, a too-small strainer.
Review: Overbuilt, absurdly durable, perfectly functional. - Yes, it's large, expensive, and a bit of a pain to store, but it's incredibly well made, has a fine, durable mesh, easily cleans in the dishwasher, and works flawlessly in practice. Hard to ask for more.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will vanilla bean pass through this?**
A: If you're talking about when you scrape inside the vanilla bean, most of it won't pass through since the insides of the vanilla bean clumps together.

**Q: What is the best pestle (size/brand) to use with this product?**
A: Use a ladle.  The size of the ladle depends on what you are pressing.  I commonly use an 8 oz ladle.  If you have very little in it, you may want that 2 oz one like the other answer said, as it would get all the way down into the tip of this quality tool.  Your have to use a good quality ladle or it will break.  Otherwise, go to your local Ethnic place, we have Vietnamese and different Hispanic groceries.  They usually carry large petals like you may want for this.  Be gentle with a pestle.  You DO NOT want to bust the stainless steel screen on this strainer using too much force.

**Q: Would this work for straining milk for dry curd cottage cheese?**
A: I suppose so. It is a very fine weave on the mesh basket, so I would think it would handle delicate stuff like cottage cheese nicely.

**Q: where is this made?**
A: France good one

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good but make sure you buy a pestle, too
*by J***N on September 19, 2013*

My wife and I have had this for months and used it several times in that period. We've used regular mesh strainers before but never another chinois so I can only compare this to regular strainers. From that viewpoint, this is way better than a regular strainer. I don't know how it stacks up against other chinois though. The hooks opposite the handle have proven useful as I sometimes mount this over a kettle while I prepare wort for homebrewing. I've noticed, though, that there still seems to be some particulate trub in my wort sometimes. There is way less than if I had tried to use a standard strainer or, really, any other method I've tried. My wife made some jam for the first time recently and we made use of both this chinois and this HIC Brands that Cook Wooden Pestle for Chinois . That particular pestle fit really well with this chinois though I was a bit worried that a lot of poking might cause the pestle to break through the chinois' mesh which would be pretty terrible given how expensive chinois are. That was the first time we used a pestle with the chinois and the results were a lot better than our attempts to use other tools (i.e. wooden spoons) to press out more liquid. I suppose that the chinois stands I've seen might be used to keep the mesh from pushing up against whatever container you're working over but two pieces of metal wire crossing around the outside of the screen provided good support. I was able to place the chinois inside my 2-cup measuring glass such that the wire held the mesh screen away from the glass itself. I think the only way that an actual stand may have been more useful than these wires is if you needed to get the chinois higher out of the container you're working over or maybe if you need both hands. Since anything that strains through the screen seems to flow down the screen until it reaches the tip, I didn't have to worry about the liquid squirting out all over the counter. This is nice considering that the screen must be at least seven inches tall. The only drawbacks to this are that it's not very multi-purpose; a cardinal sin for many dedicated kitchen-dwellers. It's also pretty large so it takes up most of an entire shelf in one of our cabinets. If storage space, money, or amount of use are a concern for you then this tool might not be a good fit. If you've got the space and money, this has been a great tool for me in home brewing and my wife in preserving so I'd recommend it.
