Will granulated sugar pass through or be held in the sieve? My "standard" for granulated sugar is C&amp;H.

I don't have any regular granulated sugar to test with. But I put some Morton's salt in it and part of it went through and part of it didn't. I imagine it would be the same for granulated sugar -- the smaller granules will get through.

I found that you have to make sure the latch is catching you must hear it click or push it in. I also soaked the clay disk about two hours. I haven't had any problems actually my brown sugar was rock hard when I put it in the container and continue to be after a month. Hope this help!

I tested uncooked millet and some grains fell through some got stuck in the holes and some stayed in the colander. I didn't have any quinoa but as I recall from an earlier attempt they would fall through or get stuck as well. Best to use a screen sieve.

Have not tried it but I seriously doubt it. With any humidity--the sugar would stick it shut! It's made for grains--& I like the fact that it doesn't powder the grain to a fine cake flour. I mostly make Whole Wheat breads-artisan style, heavy & chewy!

There are no markings on the sieve, so I cannot answer your question. I use it for baking, so I do not need the precision you seem to require. For my needs, it is adequate, though I wish the mesh was more tightly bound to the rim.

Well Patti I am a little confused by your question, the sifter uses vibration to sift flour. It doesn't do so well with confectioners sugar. There really is no moving parts to remove. What, if I may ask are you trying to sift?

What median are you using? I've used fondant and chocolate and both have worked fine. With chocolate your not going to be able to bend them of course but with fondant, after you take it out of the mold you can fold it slightly and let it dry for a day so it will stay in that position. Let it dry in something that will keep its shape like an open big book.

You can not substitute powdered confectioner's for granulated in sugar because the two are different in that powdered sugar contains corn starch that allows it to exist in its powdery natural form. For Swerve, I would imagine that the production process is somewhat similar. The result would be that the confectioner's is likely to be less sweet in the same amount of product. The consistency of the product is the main difference I have found and I understand that you should substitute like for like - meaning sugar vs. granular Swerve and confectioners sugar vs. confectioners Swerve. Hope that helps.

Yes, I've made cakes and other baked goods with dextrose. It behaves just like table sugar (sucrose).

The same as it is in any other food product. I have found they are fine to use after the date if stored in a cool area. I have a wondsrful no cook fudge recipe that I use this liq. Chocolate from nestle's in. I try to order enough to do for several seasons. This is so simple to use. I absolutely love this product!!

Here's the best I can tell you. It lists sugar on the label, but after where it lists honey granules it says "sucrose, honey". So, there you go. Clear as mud. Sorry, it wasn't clearer.Susan S

I have flour in one, sugar in another, confectionery sugar and brown sugar in others. Baking soda is ok, but the container I would keep it in it a bit too big for one box. I use another container to keep my chewing gum fresh. I use another for corn meal (love cornbread), and another for brown sugar cubes for coffee. I've even used the largest one to store my berry sangria. It stays fresh in the fridge to chill, and if extra to store for 1-2 days. I keep everything fresh, and I use them all the time. One time we stored Good and Plenty when it didn't fit in the dispenser. Everything I've put in works. I have flour in one, sugar in another, confectionery sugar and brown sugar in others.

Hello! You could use cake batter in the funnel, however the hole is very small and it would be a very very slow pour as batter is thicker then the intended use of melted chocolate. Hope that helps.

I don't think so - you'd want a finer mesh. I use a small sieve. This is really for salt or possibly granulated sugar.

Granulated is fine for cakes and cookies. Use confectioner's when making sweetened chocolate or meringue. It dissolves more readily. You could use confectioner's for everything, however.

but after you receive it should be refrigerated. Also, sieve before measuring.

I doubt it. Sugar isn't much more course than the finest ground this can do. If by icing sugar you mean confectioners sugar, you'd be way off. Furthermore, confectioners sugar has anti-caking agents in it. If you send regular sugar through this you'd likely just end up with a bunch of clumps of sugar from the pressure.
