Know before you buy
The stopper sits inside the spout to prevent fat from entering the pouring channel while the liquid settles. Once the fat has risen to the top, you simply remove the stopper to pour out the clear juices from the bottom, leaving the fat behind.
Yes, the integrated strainer is designed to catch small bits of herbs, meat, or vegetables as you pour your pan drippings into the separator, ensuring your final liquid is smooth.
Yes, the entire unit is dishwasher safe. We recommend placing it on the top rack to maintain the integrity of the BPA-free plastic over time.
The splatter shield sits on top of the container to prevent hot liquids from splashing out while you are pouring drippings from a pan. It helps keep your countertop clean and protects your hands during use.
While designed primarily for separating fat from pan drippings, it works well for any liquid mixture where you need to isolate a top layer from a bottom layer, such as skimming oil from homemade stocks or broths.
