I have the B2B food strainer with a salsa screen. Seeds are coming through, is this normal, would like to have seeds out too.

You did not state what you were straining, if it's tomatoes there should be no seeds coming through I gwt no seeds coming through on mine I have strained tomatoes, carrots, apples, Zucchini and potatoes for my gnocchi

The salsa screen does let tomato seeds and small pieces of skin through. You could put the tomatos in boiling water for 60 seconds and then put in ice water. Remove skins and break open to remove seeds. Then you could run it through the salsa sceen.

I'm not sure if the B2B food strainer is like mine, and I don't have a salsa screen. What are you putting through that has seeds coming through? I use the regular screen for apples and Autumn Olives and it comes through very satisfactory. I have a berry screen, but it didn't do as well for Autumn Olives, and I've not used it for anything else. It's supposed to be good for tomatoes, but I like my old fashioned cone shaped sieve and wooden plunger for tomatoes. Sorry that I can't tell you more.

I checked my 24 hour soaked barley under a light and it had small sprouts coming out of the ends. I realize that for this barley to truly be quality, the germ of the grain must be undamaged to allow for sprouting. I'm on my second 25 pound bag of this barley and am moving away from brown rice potentially.

Hey Burrel, I just purchased the seed myself and have not been able to see how it is going to respond yet. Good luck!

The "strainer basket" is part of a garbage disposal installation. How would you get waste into the grinder if a strainer is in the way? Question makes no sense. I have a heavy duty Waste King attached to my Orca - screwed it in myself - and have had no problems.

I received 4 strainer disks that have different size holes. I use the smallest for fuit such as raspberry which is super. I also use another disk for my potatoes. They are really easy to swap out. This food mill is a really good quality and a wonderful addition to my kitchen.

I have seen nothing but clean seeds. My product was excellent. Have used two of four bags and found nothing in the bags but seeds. Would have returned them otherwise.

I just got my strainer a month ago and have not used it for anything except apples and tomatoes...sorry.

I am sorry to say I do not know. At a glance, I don't think so. I also have a Squeezo wannabe strainer that I use for tomatoes and there is a berry screen available for it that has pretty tiny holes. If you have to remove the seeds from berries, you might look at the Victorio (or other brands) fruit strainer. My wannabe is a Norpro that has served me well for many years.

Yes, there is no screening mechanism unless you squeeze over a strainer. I just cut the fruit in half and remove the seeds with the tip of a knife first but I am not using it to juice large quantities. I like this tool because it is quick and easy to keep clean.

I use the one for cucumbers (recommended plant seeds are on the plate) but you may want to try a different one if the seeds are larger of smaller. I run a test by placing the seeder over a bucket and turning by hand to see how the plate picks up the seed.

Hi Kathryn:I just rinse the seeds off before the initial soaking. I believe they are organic, so they should be fine.But contact The Sprout House if you are worried.Best,Sarah

Is this the first feeder you have had in that area?Maybe move it to another place. Make sure your seed is fresh. You can try mixing fine sunflower chips with the thistleBe patient

Some of the smaller seeds will fall through to the tray. Also, need to use small black oil sunflower seeds. The big striped seeds are too big.

I do not have a problem with my Blanco sink nor sink strainer. Is your strainer totally open?

Mine is exactly the same. That may be by design to let some of the steam out so the corn remains crisp vs. soggy.

Can't get large strainer in bisque, only black? What the hell is wrong with Rubbermaid? Or is it Amazon providing "close out" selling space?

yes, natural for the acrylic parts to flex a bit. better that than to break from the pressure. So far the most struggle with it has been strawberrys which must have the perfect seed size to clog the strainer. No problem with anything else.
