    Excellent

    Posted by Keith Hughes on 11th Dec 2025

    These bags were just what I needed. They are strong and I was able to squeeze a lot of milk out of my nuts and seeds. I particularly liked that they cleaned very easily.

    Best, easy to clean mesh bags!

    Posted by Arjun Kanthety on 24th Mar 2021

    My mother was hesitant at first, since these bags are no made from her usual, cotton mueslin cloth. Yet, according to her, these are absolutely the best. Easy to clean and drains wonderfully. And the Cheese Maker’s customer service is superb. Thank you, Dan!

    So much better than cheese cloth.

    Posted by Jason on 16th Feb 2021

    I purchased this to hang/drain kefir cheese and it works great. Much easier to use and easier to clean than cheese cloth. Well built and it feels like it will last a while.

    Utensils to drain whey and Curds

    Posted by John Hartwig on 25th Nov 2020

    I used to dread the process of separating whey from the curds when making home made cheese. However, by using a combination of the whey pump, curd scoopers and draining bags; it is now a simple and quick process. I pump as much whey as possible from the curds with the whey pump, then scoop the curds into the draining bags with the curd scoopers, and hang the bags up and let them drain off the remaining whey for about 2 hours. It works very well!!!

    Draining/Straining Bags

    Posted by Joann Osborne on 29th Jul 2020

    This my second set of bags in 10 years. The old ones are not finished but want spares for when they do go. Useful for all kinds of food grade tasks: jelly, jam, even use the largest bags as strainers in our apple fruit press when making cider. Still finding uses.

    Draining Bag Rocks!

    Posted by Melody on 14th Jun 2020

    I recently started making my own yogurt for my family and I like it thick. This bag separates out the whey easily. It’s well made and rinses clean without any fuss.

    Mesh bags for draining / straining ehey from cheese curds

    Posted by kmf on 6th Aug 2019

    Mesh staining bags are very useful for draining whey from cheese curds. The bags are quick & easy to wash and dry, and then reuse. The curd is easily retained in the mesh bag while the whey is drained off. Thank you.
