How much milk does this hold at one time and funnel? Is the strainer itself enough to strain out the milk or should another filter be used as well.

As others have said it is a good sized funnel (.5 liter or so) and it has a nice screen, but it is a "screen," not a milk strainer or filter. It will likely catch foreign objects that might find their way into a milk pail, but would not really strain the milk sufficiently. It is more of a kitchen and canning funnel. Outstanding product, though!

it will hold approximately 1 quart a filter should be used in addition to the screen when filtering milk

Its hard to give a full answer because it isn't clear what you are trying to do with this. It doesn't hold anything. It is a funnel. I would say the capacity is about a half-litre or a little less. This is not a milk strainer one would use in cheese-making to strain raw milk. If you are using it to strain boiled milk to remove the skin that forms, it would probably work, though the small removable strainer might clog.ANd I don't think you would need a funnel for that anyway.

I recently purchased this bouillon strainer and I do use it when making homemade yogurt. It strains the yogurt very well but, I never pour it straight in. First, I gently spoon a cup or so into the bottom of the strainer and then slowly pour the rest in. If you pour all of it, all at once into the strainer, it causes too much force and some yogurt will be pushed out the bottom with the whey. Just be sure to rinse & wash the strainer immediately after you remove the yogurt. The mesh is extremely fine and would be almost impossible to clean if left to dry. I also make my own homemade chicken & vegetable stocks and it's nice to not have to use all that messy, wasteful cheesecloth anymore. My only minor issue with this item is it's too large to store with my other kitchen utensils. So I hang it on a hook on the side of one of my cupboards. Hope this helps.

It fits just fine. The funnel is pretty large. But I don't know that I could do as well with a smaller one. Seems that even with this big funnel I still manage to spill beer when pouring from the kettle to the carboy. Also, don't expect to use the strainer. It's got a very tight mesh. I get too impatient waiting for it to strain, so I don't even use it anymore. Overall, I am pleased with the funnel.

I have never tried that but it depends on the size of the particles. The strainer does have double mesh so be advised.I use it to strain larger particles, that is kefir grains. You could try when straining milk solid particles out of ghee but I use either a coffee filter or cheesecloth inside the strainer to catch the solids. It is a great quality product. I have all the sizes.

Hi, The strainer worked great for me ,I live alone and need to make cardamom cookies. It can sift moderate quantities of flour but it will only get large lumps sifted. If you need fine flour for pastries or icing -it wont work

This strainer is not made for liquids ,its not fine enough and it has bigger holes in the middle plastic cylinder ,unless nut milk is thick like joghurt it will not work.

If you are doing only a cup of almond milk at a time, this might work. It is just 3-inches in diameter, and it fits nicely into a mug when steeping a cup of hot tea. The mesh is very fine, and catches all but the finest particles of tea leaves. However, if you are wanting to strain a larger quantity of almond milk, you would want a larger strainer for the job.

This funnels inside diameter is just short of 1 and 1/2 inches, or about 37 CM. I don't know the dimensions of the intended milk jug your using but i mainly use this for refilling the FIFO condiment bottles. I like the surface of the funnel, it's very smooth, therefore the material I am transferring goes into the bottles well.

As you can see by the picture of this item, the funnell flairs out and would fit into the jar. The small end of the funnel is about one inch in diameter and the strainer can be removed and put in place to strain larger items from your liquid. I use it to strain cooking oil after I use it for french frying when particles are left behind from the flour coating.

I have not used this colander to strain yogurt, as I have a very fine mesh strainer for that purpose. I think that the holes in the colander are a bit too big, so a little of the yogurt might seep through them in addition to the whey.

I measure 5 cups of milk to make a batch. This amount is slightly more than the white strainer container can strain immediately however after a few minutes the extra fits. Or just start with 4 1/2 cups to ensure the strainer fits all. This is a great yogurt maker that I have been using 3-4 times a week. Remember the volume reduces greatly but homemade is so nice. Enjoy.

It holds a little less than the smaller of the two containers used to make the yogurt, I would say about 2 - 3 cups. When I strain it I have to add about 2/3 of the yogurt and wait for it to strain, empty the whey then add the rest of the yogurt.

Comes with a wide flat strainer. If you don't like pulp you do have to strain it. I have used 2 other soy milk makers with baskets to hold the pulp. They are a huge pain to clean.

It just sits in the base. We use a paper filter which holds it down when pouring the milk into it relatively slowly.

If you mean, how much fluid can this bag hold before it overflows, I would guess about four cups. I make six cups of nut milk at a time. I hold this bag over an eight-cup measuring cup and pour until the bag starts to clog, then I keep pouring and squeeze gently to filter the rest of the nut milk.

It works best with whole milk. Press about 40 times. you can feel it gets harder and harder to pull and press it. the trick is you pull not too high (1cm upon the milk) and don't press all over to the bottom. You can watch the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIthwYox2mAI would like to teach you, but my English is too bad to express myself.

Since it has powdered milk in it, just add water to activate the milk. Adding more milk makes it too much dairy for me.
