Review of Greek Yogurt Strainer
I am making a quart of Greek-style yogurt a week now and was looking for ways to increase my efficiency when straining the freshly made product. This strainer was the perfect answer. No cheese cloth required. Just put the new yogurt batch in the strainer and then into the refrigerator. It can hold up to two quarts and you end up with one quart of strained yogurt. The strainer is well made but the mesh lining is delicate and not dishwasher safe. The whey in the bottom is a little sour so removing it sweetens the final product. For me, the perfect consistency occurs after 3-4 hours of straining time. If you strain over night and the yogurt is too thick, you can thin it out by adding milk and whisking.
NetherlandsRecommended
At last found this big capacitate Greek Yogurt maker. As lovers of Greek Yogurt we needed this one and so this one is highly recommended. I gladly stored the small strained yogurt containers I had bought before in the cellar. This high quality large strained yogurt container is the only one on the market.
United StatesGame Changer
This extremely well-made strainer makes achieving thickened Greek style yogurt simple and precise. Large enough to strain two quarts of yogurt simultaneously, and easy to keep clean, I use it at least once a week.
United StatesExcellent Quality!
This thing is awesome! It has the finest mesh screen of any product anywhere! I use my farm fresh raw whole milk from my milk cows to make Bulgarian yogurt then strain with this thing. Perfect every time!
United StatesGREAT for ricotta draining
I actually bought this on Amazon, but will tell you, this is great for draining up to a 4 gal batch of ricotta (about 2 pounds). Do be careful and don't press too hard on the fine mesh, or it will tear. You can repair with some food grade silicone sealant. I love this because I can set the strainer part on a perforated wood board over the sink (or you can set in a colander), scoop out the main curds, and then as they settle, pour the rest until you get nearly every last curd. Then pop it in the fridge for a day or two, and finish how you want. I like to add exotic salts and herbs to mine. Also very good for draining feta, too.
