1. Fully disassemble the Food Strainer & Sauce Maker.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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 ll 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 llings 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 rm 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.
