18/10 Stainless Steel Funnel with Filter,Silver, 5 inches

Wonderful gadget, this is so much easier than taking my strainer and taking my funnel and trying to hold it all together while I pour stuff through it .I make kombucha and always have to strain out the large pieces.

It came as described

I boil my water and strain it through a coffee filter to reduce microplastics. This funnel is perfect for coffee filters. The funnel tip is not very small so keep that in mind. It’s very good quality

I render my own lard and needed a metal or high temperature funnel when transferring it from the pan to a mason jar. I saw for a few dollars more I could get the Kuchenprofi with a filter so I figured I would give it a shot. The screen hole sizes in the filter is small and don't look as small as a metal coffee filter screen but the lard came out just as clean, so it seems to do a good job.Overall, the funnel is nicely built and feels sturdy. The filter does not fit tight, it fits snug and sits in a tapered part of the neck of the funnel so that it doesn't move around when liquid is poured into the funnel. I've only used the funnel for filling mason jars and it sits in the jars perfectly stable. (I think it has enough weight & width to it that it doesn't move at the slightest bit of pressure like a super thin & tall funnel would.) The surface area of the screen is large enough that I have not had any problems with it backing up or draining at a tedious rate. As the other reviewers have mentioned everything about it is quality: the handle is nice, it has some weight and thickness to it, the funnel & filter are easy to clean, the filter is not extremely delicate, etc.All in all is it worth it? If you don't use a funnel many times a year or don't do much canning then I would say no. If you're like me and bad tools that you use often piss you off when they don't work then spend a couple dollars more for this. (I also like that fact that this is made in Germany as opposed to China. I would prefer the USA, but Europe will work.)

This jam funnel is great for transferring thick liquids directly into jars or bottles. I was hoping to use this funnel and my fine kitchen strainer to pour espumas directly into my iSi 2470 Thermo Whip Whip Cream Whipper. But because the funnel neck is tapered, the funnel's neck doesn't completely sit onto my thermal whipper (less than a third of the neck goes in). iSi makes a funnel for this purpose (for about $30 each if you can find it sold other than in a 4-pack). I guess I'm back to using my small strainer and large Pyrex measuring cup.I'm finding other uses for this funnel. I use this funnel for refilling peppercorns in some of my peppermills. I also use it when I'm counting my prescription tablets to help pour the tablets back into the large mouth prescription bottles.This funnel seems to be made in Germany. The handle is a dual round loop welded to the funnel which does not cut into my fingers as I use it (compared to a flat stamped loop like most funnel handles). The top of the funnel measures just shy of 4 ¾" while the bottom of the funnel's neck opening is just a bit over 1 ½ inches wide. The neck of the funnel has a slight taper. The top opening is flared but the edge is not rolled. I guess on the plus side, a rolled edge could trap some food in but then if I can't see it and it's washed, does it really hurt? The edges don't seem sharp and the gauge of stainless is solid and shouldn't bend with normal use.PROS:Since it's made of 18/10 stainless steel the funnel will hold up with use.The funnel can be useful when used with a small fine kitchen strainer for quickly straining liquids directly into a wide mouth container.The wide neck of the funnel makes transferring thick liquids (sauces or jams) directly into jars or other narrow mouth containers easy.CONS:None so far.

I use this with disposable 6 1/2" milk filtering disks to strain cooking oil for reuse. I strain the oil into a glass canning jar. This funnel is very stable on the jar and makes the process very easy. It is very good quality material and washes easily in the dishwasher. I've had mine for several years and just bought one for my daughter. I much prefer it to a plastic funnel. The large opening allows the oil to drain more quickly than a regular funnel. I highly recommend. It should last a lifetime.

I bought this funnel to filter oil from my deep fryer. I read other reviewers who had problems with the filter floating when pouring liquids or oil, I have not had this problem. I pour the oil maintaining the depth about half way on the funnel and the filter does not float on me. The one thing that may be an issue for some is that the funnel won't fit into the typical gallon size vegetable, canola or peanut oil container. One reviewer I read stated they placed a smaller funnel in the oil container then placed this one on top and poured the oil. I considered this and purchased the funnel, but I found this to not be a good solution, it requires two people to get the oil poured, one to pour and one to hold the funnels. So my solution and my five star rating was to find another container to pour the used oil in. Because other than not fitting into the original container the funnel does an excellent job filtering the oil, nothing gets through, and that's what I bought the filter for. If you have cats, purchase Purina Deli Cat or Pro Plan dry food in the 3.5 or 4lb plastic containers. The filter fits perfectly and only takes one person to pour. I'm sure there are many other containers that would work.I hope this review helps.
