What is the diameter of this specific model?

This model features an 8 cm diameter bowl.

Troubleshooting

Mesh is clogged with flour or fine powder

Use a dry bristle brush or tap the frame firmly against the side of a waste bin to dislodge loose particles before washing.

  • Rust-resistant finish ensures long-term durability
  • Dishwasher-safe for effortless cleanup
  • Built-in hook provides stability during use
  • Compact and easy to store in tight kitchen drawers

Cons

  • Small 8 cm diameter is not suitable for large quantities
  • Fine mesh may be difficult to clean if food is allowed to dry inside
  • Limited capacity for thick purées

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The sieve requires no complex setup; it is ready to use immediately. For the best performance, ensure the sieve is fully dry before sifting powders to prevent clogging. Regarding compatibility, the 8 cm size fits comfortably over standard drinking glasses, small saucepans, and prep bowls. To maintain the integrity of the fine mesh, it is recommended to wash the sieve promptly after use. While it is dishwasher-safe, hand washing with a soft brush can help clear stubborn particles from the mesh screen.
