Is the sieve rust-proof?

It is constructed from high-quality stainless steel, which is highly resistant to rust and corrosion under normal kitchen conditions.

What is the diameter of the sieve?

The sieve measures 18 cm in width and depth, with a height of 8 cm.

Does it have a loop for hanging?

Yes, it includes a built-in hanging loop on the handle for convenient storage.

Can I put this in the dishwasher?

Is the handle heat resistant?

The handle is designed for comfort; however, it should not be left resting inside a pot over a direct flame.

Troubleshooting

Use a dry bristle brush to gently dislodge the particles while the sieve is dry, then rinse with warm water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This sieve arrives ready to use immediately; no assembly is required. Because of its 18 cm width, it is compatible with most standard-sized mixing bowls, saucepans, and deep-sided skillets.

Care Instructions:

  1. Rinse under warm water immediately after use to prevent residue from hardening in the mesh.
  2. Although the unit is dishwasher-safe, hand washing with a soft brush is recommended to preserve the integrity of the fine mesh over time.
  3. Store in a dry area using the integrated hanging loop to prevent moisture buildup within the wire mesh structure.
