Will this work for juicing blackberries? Or would I have to strain the seeds out after steaming?

Perfect for blackberries. You will get pure juice and all the pulp and seeds remain in the top unit. Just watch the water level in the bottom from time to time.

It does not stain so you would have to do that after, I bought a strander at Walmart that fit od my bottles and at I empty the juice it gets strained. It is a great juicer!

It should work for blackberries. The juice is collected in the second chamber and the pulp of the fruit and the seeds shouldStill be up in the top chamber. You could always line the top chamber with cheesecloth if it looks like the seeds will get into the juice. I love my steam juicer. I've made two batches of sole juice and with the pulp made apple butter. Delicious!

I haven't tried any of the small seeded berries, but there are instructions in the 'recipe booklet' for steaming them. It should work as long as you don't mash the berries after or while they are cooking. (You aren't supposed to mash any of the fruit while it is in the steam...unless you are intentionally trying to get some of the pulp.)

hi there.. I didn't do any juicing of blackberries but I believe it will work...I did the concord grapes which are seeded and I had no seeds in my juice. thanks. but I did do blackberries in a juice quite similar about 6 years ago and I had no problem with the seeds...I had also did raspberries that year as well .....with amazing results

I did black berries and a few seeds made their way into the juice, but most of them stayed in the pulp

I use this mill to make tomato juice and applesauce. It strains the coarse pulp and seeds from cooked tomatoes and nicely turns cooked apples into delicious strained applesauce. I imagine you could smoosh cooked potatoes with it too, but I haven't done it. It's just designed to force cooked food through the screens to remove seeds and any other hull or pulpy parts that you are separating out.

Yes, i always use a metal mesh strainer before i drink it or before i put in mason jar for storage. This type of juicer juices faster, but also puts out more pulp.

I have not used it to juice tomatoes and my concern is whether the tomato seeds are so small they will fit through the holes and compromise the quality of the product. Why don't you just steam a batch and see if you get what you want. Good luck. It is an amazing piece of equipment.

Yes!!! It's very fine! I made strawberry syrup with this and it took out all the pulp and seeds. Just a note, this thing is very small and I would suggest the next size up. :)

Don't juice the seeds- they contain cyanide. It takes a whole bunch to kill ya but what's the point when you're juicing 'for the health' of it.

Hi, I have not tried that yet, but my first response would be no. When I do try to get the juice out without any seeds at all, without question I would use the food mill first then put the pulp thru my fine mesh sieve (strainer). When I do cactus apples I use my food mill and its great but is you need to be careful not to have any seeds, go with the food mill first then strain the pulp. It also makes it easier to strain once it's been thru the mill. Hope this helps. Food mills are a great addition to any kitchen!

I can strain mustard seeds out of Rasam soup, so I would assume that strawberry seeds would strain easily. It strains gravy pretty nicely too.

This is difficult to answer without knowing how crunchy or mushy you cook vegetables. I would not recommend you use this to strain any hot cooked items. Spinners are normally used for uncooked vegetable and fruits, including berries that are still firm. If you currently own this item and are intent on using it with cooked items, I recommend you experiment with very small batches. Remember that the baskets are usually plastic and hot items might damage or melt the basket. I hope this helps. Good Luck.

Honestly, I would recommend the OXO reamer for that. It's amazing, so thorough and easy to use. The Amco squeezers are awkward, slippery, and difficult to use. I found it most useful for juicing pomegranates, but that's about it.

Use the smallest screen and it works better than anything I've ever seen at removing blackberry seeds. I've made 30+ quarts of blackberry jam and over a dozen blackberry pies with mine.

you will need to grind them up first. It will not do whole ones. But it works really good if will prep the items first. I have used it on berries, apples and other fruits. As long as i grind the apples first, it gets all the juice out.

I'm not sure because you'd have to make the holes small enough to prevent the seeds from going through and the smallest hole openings are a little large. I use the smallest setting to make egg salad which by the way comes out great - perfect texture. The only time I've ever needed to separate seeds from the pulp, is when I open a pomegranate. I bought a pomegranate separator and it works great. I would never assume that it would work with this appliance that we are discussing now. I hope this helps. Check out the pomegranate seed gizmo. It's really very cool and not expensive at all. I put it at Amazon.

If you are referring to whether the seeds of fruits and vegetables can be run through the juicer along with the pulp; then yes, the seeds will go through without any problem. However it cannot handle woody pits, such as peach pits. If you are referring to whether this machine will process seeds for making seed butter; I don't know I never tried it. However, I do know there are several machines on the market designed specifically for making seed and nut butters. Hope this helps!

I'm not sure if the B2B food strainer is like mine, and I don't have a salsa screen. What are you putting through that has seeds coming through? I use the regular screen for apples and Autumn Olives and it comes through very satisfactory. I have a berry screen, but it didn't do as well for Autumn Olives, and I've not used it for anything else. It's supposed to be good for tomatoes, but I like my old fashioned cone shaped sieve and wooden plunger for tomatoes. Sorry that I can't tell you more.

I honestly wouldn't recommend this product or juicing pomegranates, the valve that the juice run through while being pressed has a point tip and more then like it will just pierce the fruit rather then juice ...I honestly don't know how you juice a pomegranate because the juice come from the seed I would probably just google or go on YouTube and type in "How to extract juice from a pomegranate.

I haven't tried squeezed raw potatos from my press but I'd think it would work as long as you kept the portions small. The press container will hold about 1 quart of fruit, etc. When I was pressing currant berries, I found that it worked better if I didn't try to squeeze a whole quart and instead pressed out smaller portions. Takes longer of course, but it worked for me. My guess is the same would work for potato.
