Fully disassemble the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker.

Wash all parts in hot soapy water. A stiff-bristled bottle brush may be needed to

clean the

Screen. Pay extra attention to the seams of the Screen as seeds and skin may

gather there.

Before storing or reassembling the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker be sure all the

parts are thoroughly dry. It is recommended to apply a drop of vegetable oil on the rubber

Screen Gasket to keep it from drying and becoming brittle.

Keep the box the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker came in for easy storage.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

•

It is normal when straining large quantities of food with a high moisture content like

tomatoes, to see liquid back up into the

Hopper. Simply continue turning the Handle

until all the liquid disappears from the

Hopper and neck of the Food Strainer & Sauce

Maker.
•

Depending on the food you are processing, it may be necessary to occasionally

scrape pulp from the

Screen of the Food Strainer & Sauce Maker. A rubber spatula is

ideal for this.

•

The

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker is equipped with an extra Large Hopper. It

is best to fill the

Hopper half full leaving space around the middle to guide food into the

throat of the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker using the Stomper.

•

If there is excessive pulp exiting the

Waste Funnel, run the pulp through the Food

Strainer & Sauce Maker a second time to fully extract every bit of juice. To get the most

out of the fruits and vegetables, strain the skins and seeds from the

Waste Funnel a

second time.

•

Operating the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker while empty is not recommended.

The juice from the fruits and vegetables act as a lubricant for the mechanism and

reduces wear on the components.

•

The standard

Screen that comes with the Food Strainer & Sauce Maker is ideal

for most foods, such as: Apples*, Tomatoes, Apricots*, Avocados (must be peeled),

Carrots*, Cherries, Cranberries*, Peaches (remove pit before straining), Potatoes*,

Pears*. *These foods should be softened by steaming, par boiling or baking before

straining.

•

IMPORTANT NOTE: ALWAYS FOLLOW RECOMMENDED CANNING,

FREEZING AND DEHYDRATING PROCEDURES WHEN PRESERVING ANY

FOODS.

HELPFUL HINTS

PUMPKIN, SQUASH, POTATOES, ETC:

Using the optional Pumpkin Screen

(Model No. 07-0857 sold separately) creates incredibly smooth pie fillings or purees. Use

this

Screen to also make breads, cakes, or even mashed potatoes without peeling. Just

cut these products into 1” (2.5 cm) squares or slices. Boil or bake until tender. Allow to

cool. For pumpkin and squash scoop the pulp out of its skin and run it through the

Food

Strainer & Sauce Maker. Potatoes can be cut into cubes, boiled until tender then run right

through the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker for super smooth or chunky mashed potatoes

with no peeling.

GRAPES:

Using the optional Grape Spiral

(Model No. 07-0856 sold separately) and

standard

Screen, to create gallons of delicious grape juice in just minutes. Just wash the

grapes, pull them from the stems, and the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker does the rest.

Great for the home wine maker.

FRUITS WITH LARGER PITS:

For fruits like peaches, cherries, mangos, avocados*,

and anything else with a large seed, you must remove the seed to prevent jamming the

mechanism. Don’t worry about the skin or the core, the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker will

easily remove them and send them out through the

Waste Funnel. If the fruit is firm like an

apple or pear, remember to soften them by steaming or baking slightly before loading them

into the

Food Strainer & Sauce Maker. * Avocados must be peeled before straining.
