Cotton Farm Cheesecloth Grade 100 9 Reviews Summary

Quality and Durability

Pros:

• "This is some high quality stuff."
• "Durable washable and gets all the plant material out of my home made oils."
• "Definitely easy to rinse off after every use."
• "It is very very tough."
• "I have used this quite a few times. Very durable, and easy to wash once done."
• "Most cheesecloth I’ve had is so thin and wiry that it’s basically 1 use and gone. This one was surprisingly thick and well made."
• "Uniform weave, selvage along both sides prevents unraveling."

Cons:

• "However they were not easy to use - there was no way to hang a bag to drain out the milk."
• "None of the edges are hemmed as described. It's already starting to fall apart right out of the package."
• "It was not at all as it was described."
• "The biggest issue is that in doing so more than once I've popped the cloth causing everything I'm trying to squeeze the liquid out of inside to shoot out."
• "It's a bit expensive. it's piece of cloth and was not properly cut."
• "It does the job but since the edges are not stiched it keeps on losing threads from the edges!"
• "These are NOT hemmed as described. It frayed immediately after the first wash. Waste of money."

Usability and Versatility

Pros:

• "The cloth is washable and reusable, I love this."
• "I use it as a bag for spices when I cook and keeps things contained while adding flavor - does the job and it's re-usable."
• "I cut this in half and use it for everything! Squeezing zucchini shreds, cauliflower rice, or other veg."
• "I actually use this cheesecloth as a cheap alternative to mull for binding books. It’s thin and flexible, but also strong enough to help create a good clean bind."
• "For straining broths or other liquids, this is ideal. To make yoghurt into a Greek style, the is also perfect. A great price and inexpensive enough to not have to wash."
• "I use these for tops of sprouting jars. It is a perfect thickness so the seeds don't fall out when rinsing and holds up!"
• "I'm using it for So Much more in the kitchen and making health remedies, teas, coffee concoctions, bathbombs, and even in the garden."

Cons:

• "Great price, but I dropped my rating from five stars to three because of a bug that was vacuum-packed with the cheesecloth."
• "I used this for making almond milk. It worked as expected. I found it a little hard to clean, but that's probably just because of what I was using it for."
• "Maybe it's just me and I'm using it wrong. However one layer of cloth still lets things through while two or three doesn't let enough through."
• "I tried to clean it and it was a Dead end. So I threw it away."
• "The cloth is too dense to let the liquid through."
• "This would not even let orange juice drain through it."
• "It did such a GREAT job, I literally have no complaints."

Manufacturing and Packaging

Pros:

• "The maker gives you plenty and it comes shrink wrapped and air tight."
• "It initially did have a weird material smell. But, after I washed it, the smell completely disappeared. Also, it does have 2 hems."
• "It has a lovely, tight selvedge on two edges and I will cut and hem the others."
• "This is quite a large piece of cheesecloth and for my purposes I can cut it into at least three strips."
• "I was impressed by the fine gauge which required fewer layers in the straining process."
• "It’s easy to cut the piece you need without it frilling as well."
• "Arrived fast and without damage."

Cons:

• "Received the product, claims to be made in Europe but it’s 'newly manufactured in China' and it looks very clean in the picture but not in person it looks dirty."
• "Doesn’t look like in those images they advertised. It’s torn from a big piece of cloth and sent to customer, even without hem around the border."
• "it is not hemmed on all sides just one, the sides that are cut seem to have been done by hand with scissors and left a lot of fraying."
• "Jagged edges on both sides; not evenly cut and really crooked and stringy."
• "Bought these to filter our homemade maple syrup. Unfortunately, it was so fine that the hot syrup didn't pass through efficiently."
• "This cloth ripped immediately.. I knew it was going to be a tight weave in a thin cloth but it should have been stronger than a piece of Kleenex tissue and it was not."
• "I can see a lot of loose threads, this can lead to poor hygiene and this can make health issues. We cannot use this to filter any food products like Yogurt, or Cheese."
