Florina Sokownik 8L 28 cm strainer pot, model 5s1684

Florina Sokownik 8L 28 cm strainer pot (model 5s1684) is a stainless-steel kitchen vessel designed to combine boiling, straining and collection of liquids in a single container. With an 8‑liter capacity and a 28 cm diameter, it is sized for home canning, juice extraction, making jams, fruit and vegetable processing, and preparing broths. The inner perforated insert separates solids from liquids during cooking, allowing direct transfer of strained juice to jars or collection containers without additional filtering steps.

Advantages

The pot integrates a removable strainer basket and a spacious outer pot to simplify straining and reduce transfers between utensils. Its 8 L capacity accommodates medium to large batches, while the 28 cm diameter provides an even cooking surface and stable heating on standard stovetops. The design enables efficient hot-liquid handling and easier cleanup compared with separate pots and colanders.

Suitable for

• Home juice extraction from fruits and soft vegetables
• Preparing jams, preserves and marmalades
• Straining broths, stocks and clear soups
• Boiling and separating solids during canning and bottling

Key specifications

• Capacity: 8 liters
• Diameter: 28 cm
• Material: stainless steel construction for pot and strainer insert
• Design: removable perforated insert for separation of solids and liquids
• Compatibility: suitable for standard stovetop heating

How to use

Place the perforated insert inside the outer pot, add fruit or vegetables into the basket and pour enough water into the outer chamber to cover ingredients as needed for cooking. Heat on a compatible stovetop until the contents soften and release juice, then allow steam and liquid to collect in the outer pot as solids remain in the insert. Remove the insert with care using handles or tongs to drain remaining liquid back into the pot, then pour strained juice into jars or a collection container. Clean both the insert and pot after cooling according to material care recommendations.

Usage recommendations

For best results, cut fruit into even pieces and avoid overfilling the strainer insert to ensure even cooking and efficient juice extraction. Use heat-resistant gloves when handling hot metal parts and empty hot liquids slowly into prepared jars or heatproof containers.
