 making applesauce November 2, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
After looking at a number of recipes in various cookbooks and and on the internet, I was thoroughly confused, but I remembered that my mother-in-law owned a device that worked with little difficulty. I ordered this mill because it seemed the most stable. After washing the apples, I cooked them in in large pots (several batches) I did not core or peel any of them but tossed the apples in the boiling water and set the timer for 15 to 20 minutes. Then I drained the excess water in a colander and spooned about two cups in the mill. Chose the sieve with the largest holes or the result will be a puree. After three to five minutes, I had a delicious sauce with very little effort and no skidding across the counter tops. A few seeds will be found in the mixture, but just spoon them out. After adding sugar and cinnamon to taste, I froze them in freezer containers. After each batch though, you just need to turn the mill upside down, run water through the hole and manually removed the leftover peel. It was the quickest and easiest way to make applesauce. I highly recommend this model. It may cost a little more than others but it was definitely worth it.
Great food mill October 31, 2008
After using a Foley mill, this one was heavenly. I use it mostly for apple butter, and I find it to be really great. Here's why:
-- The fold-out legs are really sturdy. I tend to want to mill those apple skins until they beg for mercy, because a lot of the flavor is there. I can push down on this while suspended over a pot, with no problems at all.
-- The milling action works easily. Until I get down to the skins-only stage of the milling, it requires only light pressure to mill the food.
-- It's easy to assemble and disassemble, and easy to clean.
-- The three screens are great, and I can get rid of my potato ricer now, as well as my old food mill.
There are a couple of minuses that others have mentioned:
-- The capacity of the mill itself is not large. I didn't really have a problem with that, since I would just spoon in some stuff, mill it, spoon in some more stuff, etc. Since you can put it over a much larger pot, it didn't bother me.
-- There is no scraper wire underneath. Since this makes it quieter, and all it requires it taking a spoon and scraping it once when you are done, this is a very small minus for me. I suppose if you were trying to measure the amount you'd done really accurately, this would be more annoying.
The minuses aren't minuses for me, so I'm still giving this 5 stars. I highly recommend it.

Oxo Good Grips Food Mill
is an excellent buy, a little more expensive than others but well worth the price. Well constructed, sturdy and easy to use and clean.
Great Food Mill !!! October 24, 2008
I bought this to replace another one I have used for a few years to make applesauce and tomato sauce. What an improvement! It processes thoroughly with minimal effort. The legs fold up for compact storage but extend to form a study platform over a small bowl. Oxo products are always excellent and this one is no exception.
 WORKS WELL & IS WELL MADE October 24, 2008
I've only used it twice, once to make a concord grape pie and once to make apple sauce. It's a bit small to do large quantities of apples, but then again it is easier to store. It did all I wanted both times and is well made and reasonably priced. I might give it 5 stars after I have used it more, such as making mashed potatoes, grating cheese, making homemade jams, and canning tomatoe sauce, using the different inserts. I bought it after the harvest season was over.
