Know before you buy
The sieves vary by hole size to control texture: the 1.5 mm sieve is for fine fruit sauces and juices, the 2.5 mm is for standard purees and soups, and the 4 mm is best for fibrous vegetables like leeks or spinach.
No, this mill is designed for cooked or soft ingredients. You should boil or steam your fruits and vegetables until tender before processing them for the best results.
While the stainless steel is durable and rust-resistant, we recommend hand washing the mill to preserve the finish and ensure the mechanism stays smooth over time.
This model is specifically designed for smaller portions and compact kitchens. If you regularly process large quantities of produce, you may find yourself needing to empty the hopper more frequently than with a larger, professional-grade mill.
The manual crank is designed for smooth, reliable operation. Because it is a smaller unit, it requires minimal force to process soft, cooked foods, making it quite accessible for most home cooks.
