Know before you buy
No, this strainer is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the copper finish and prevent tarnishing, we recommend hand washing it with mild soap and drying it immediately after use.
Yes, the wider body design is specifically engineered to create a secure, leak-free fit on most standard Boston shaker tins and mixing glasses.
Because this is a copper-plated item, it is not rust-resistant and will develop a unique patina over time with regular use. If you prefer to keep it shiny, you can use a gentle metal polish occasionally, but many bartenders appreciate the character that develops with age.
The extra-dense coil is designed to catch more ice shards and small fruit pulp than standard strainers. This results in a cleaner, smoother pour for your shaken or stirred cocktails.
Yes, the ergonomic, low-profile handle is designed to reduce hand fatigue, making it a practical choice for both busy professional bartenders and home enthusiasts.
