CIA 23334 Consumer Report


CIA 23334 Review by E. Lewis

Also, perhaps I wasn't familiar with the lingo. "very fine mesh" must mean, fine, cause it's not "super fine", which is what I thought this was. it's finer than my other large strainer, but less fine than a tea strainer that I have. Seems overpriced at $27. I'd assumed, at that price, it would be super/ultra fine. It's a nice, above average strainer. I'd say it's worth about 18 bucks at a wholesale store. 27 seems overpriced.

Hello,

I could certainly say this is indeed a strainer made with stainless steel mesh. However, very fine is far from applicable to it's mesh. There is little more that can be said. This mesh was no more fine or better at filtering than any product not labeled for it's density in meshing. The product isn't a total failure, but it is still not to where I expected it to be.


CIA 23334 Review by R. S. Ballantyne (Reno, Nevada)

Having learned long ago that I couldn't run with the big dogs, I am now learning it is difficult to keep up with puppies. Nevertheless, my interest in learning is undiminished.

After being introduced to Quinoa the other day, I found it necessary to learn about its rinsing, saponins, and about the inadequacy of normal strainers. Then came news - - thanks Jeannie - - that there are very-fine-mesh strainers available for rinsing Quinoa. For this old dog the Quinoa saga was like following a trail of enticing doggy treats.

Checking with amazon.com there was only one adequate-sized very-fine-mesh stainless-steel strainer. For rinsing Quinoa it got rave reviews. The only negatives were from buyers who believed it overpriced at $26.94

The overpriced criticism motivated me to check online. It would seem that researching fine-mesh strainers available for purchase would be relatively straightforward. Wrong!

The companies that make strainers are mostly mainland Chinese. Often their product descriptions do not include the type of metal. For fine-mesh strainers, chinois, and china caps descriptions, in which the type of metal is indicated, the metal is most often tin plated.

But wait a minute! I Googled fine-mesh strainers. What the hell are chinois and china caps? Well, it turns out that chinois and china caps, sometimes referred to as china cups, are all the same thing: cone-shaped fine-mesh screens for filtering bouillon. Chinois come in all sizes from a one-cup size to commercial sizes.

After an hour of online agitation, the best comparative price for a fine-mesh stainless steel strainer seemed to be $10 more than the Amazon price. I ended up purchasing: CIA Masters Collection 6-3/4-Inch Very Fine Mesh Strainer
