Customer Reviews of Oxo Good Grips Fat Separator, 4-Cup
Customer Rating: Summary: Frequently used kitchen tool Comment: I requested a fat separator for Christmas (my old one cracked) and received this one from my Mom. I love the fact that it will hold a full 4 cups of liquid and it has a stopper that seems to make the fat rise to the top quickly. The soft grip handle is comfortable in my hand. Just put the pieces in the dishwasher and cleanup is a snap! The only thing I don't like is the large holes in the strainer let small pieces of meat, skin, etc. slip down into the broth. To solve the problem, when I pour the broth out, I pour it through a fine wire mesh strainer. Of the three separators that I've owned, this is by far the best one! I highly recommend it. Customer Rating: Summary: Works perfectly - fat-free broth! Comment: I positively love my OXO fat separator! It holds a good amount of liquid, but not so much as to be difficult to pour. The lid helps strain out the solids, but if you want your broth to be absolutely clear, put a piece of cheesecloth over the lid. IMPORTANT - the little black stopper MUST be inserted in the pouring spout before you add liquids to the cup or the fat will simply rise up in the spout. The stopper creates a vacuum, forcing the fat into the main body of the cup. When you're ready to pour, remove the stopper and the fat will remain floating in the body of the cup. This cup is made out of high-quality plastic and washes up well in the dishwasher. It doesn't stain when you wash it with the tomato sauces! I've used mine for a couple of years and it's as good as new. I wouldn't make gravy or broth without it. Customer Rating: Summary: works perfectly! Comment: i was a little unsure about how this would work, but now i have seen the light! i make homemade chicken stock about once a week and this perfectly seperates the fat from the stock. no more skimming the pot! i could not be more pleased. Customer Rating: Summary: Great design, works well! Comment: We use this more often for making homemade stocks than gravy, but it works great for both. I'm glad we got the 4 cup, because it works great for huge batches of chicken stock. Customer Rating: Summary: Gravy Comment: My last gravy making cup worked ok but it still couldn't separate all the fat. It finaly broke and I had to get another. I found this one for a great price and used it for Thanksgiving, and it was perfect. Get one!! More Reviews The Good Grips Fat Separator makes it easier to separate the fat from the gravy, for better and tastier meals. Pour your gravy into the Separator and watch the fat rise to the top while lean gravy settles to the bottom. The heat resistant strainer catches unwanted bits, and the stopper prevents fat from rising to the top of the spout. This heat resistant Fat Separator has measurement markings for increased convenience and a non-slip handle for a comfortable, firm grip. Choosing Appliance -> Knives The importance of high quality knives can't be stressed enough! Buy the best you can and expect to spend some serious money. It is better to buy a couple of excellent knives and slowly add to your collection rather than buying an entire set of low quality knives. Start with a chef knife and paring knife. You will also want to buy a sharpening steel. Choosing Appliance -> Energy-Efficient Refrigerators The EnergyGuide label on new refrigerators will tell you how much electricity in kilowatt-hours (kWh) a particular model uses in one year. The smaller the number, the less energy the refrigerator uses and the less it will cost you to operate. In addition to the EnergyGuide label, don't forget to look for the Energy Star label. A new refrigerator with an Energy Star label will save you between $35 and $70 a year compared to the models designed 15 years ago. This adds up to between $525 and $1,050 during the average 15-year life of the unit.
