How to use

Place the ORION metal strainer over the target container or bowl and pour the contents through the mesh to separate solids from liquids or to catch particles.

Use the strainer for small-quantity kitchen tasks to ensure efficient drainage and fine sifting. Avoid exposing the mesh to strong abrasive cleaners or high heat for prolonged periods. Inspect the mesh periodically for deformation or clogging and clean immediately after use to maintain flow and hygiene.
