is this the same mesh as a chinois?

Don't know bought this for my son who likes really nice cooking utensils so I assume it is good quality.

There are many different type mesh strainers and mesh size varies. This strainer is almost as fine as a tea strainer. I mainly use this for making soups, and stocks. It is excellent for skimming fat off the top. The mesh size is perfect for gathering the oils, while letting the precious stock return to the pot. It is also great for straining the stock, but your better off using a coarser sieve first. I honestly don't know how I made it this long without this strainer!

I had to look this up and I found what I believe is an answer. This MIU Steel Mesh is a screen of finely woven wire similar to the screen in your house windows but much stronger and more closely woven. The screen area IS NOT a perforated solid metal piece as I have found in some food mills. There is some flex to this mesh but very little. Food mills that I have seen are a solid piece of metal with thousands of tine holes drilled into it that has no flex or give.

I would say not quite. It is a fine mesh but the chinois appears to be even finer. This one is great for skimming fat off broth, water flows through, very decent for the price.

I can't really tell, it looks the same but you get the bonus of having an arm to fit clothes. Mine has collapsible shoulders which helps a lot when fitting some tighter items. You may need to contact the manufacturer to get more details.

No. I was sure it would be, but mine arrived with a "made in China" sticker on it, so I peeled that sticker off and it said "made in Mexico" underneath. It appears to be a typical Chinese casting to me. It is functional.

Yes, good quality mesh, we've had these chaises for over 4 years and they still look like new.

No, the mesh is the same 'grade' on all three...I would say that it's on the fine side, but not super fine. Super helpful, right? :)

yes, the lining is different. It is smooth...and actually they are not as thick as I wish they were!

No mesh. It brings down the weight a whole lot, yet it's still more durable than the really ultralight jackets.

Hi Wendy. I have that wall cap right here. Yes, behind the flapper is a steel mesh. -Matt

I believe it is a chinois. I have used it to filter materials before putting them through my ISI Thermo Whip. If you look up "Chinois" on Amazon, this product is the first one that comes up.

Hopefully you'll agree that this one doesn't look the same. I was looking for something that gave great protection, looked cool like a motorcycle helmet and was affordable. The Bern Berkeley does it for me. There are different sizes and colors, some have a removable liner (love that) which makes it really adjustable and others are for colder weather. Overall, though, the Bern are all curved and not weird alien looking helmets like the Tour de France riders wear. Hope that helps.

It looks the same but I'm not sure. This one is not as sturdy as I'd hoped.

i think they are the same. I suggest you call the company, WEIN, in LA for any questions. They are pretty helpful.

I'm not familiar with the one you are comparing it to. As the others have stated - this one is very nice & well made.

Yep, Chinese. Note: ok for price. Tested ok. Good for Bug out. Better ones worth saving a little for. This one good for4-5 uses. Little elbow grease cut thru a raw 4" pine branch. Other Q let me know.

Nope. There's a different set for the front. They look very similar but there's different attachment points.

Yes, they are very similar. Great quality algo, I've been suing these for more over a year.

Thank-you, my starter does have a steel gear and it does look identical to mine, so I think it will be fine.
