Would this screen work for drying sprouted wheat or rye berries?

I use the screen for drying herbs which shrink down to nothing so I would think it would work for your sprouted berries.

Yes, I think they would, as they prevent items from sticking to the drying tray. Anything that is large enough to not drop thru the screen should work well.

Probably not. I would use the fruit roll up screens for those things. They do not have holes so you can dry tiny things or even fruit paste or applesauce on them.

Yes, this would work for any of those things. I would just make sure you have a neutral adjunct grain like rice to run through it after spices so you don't have cracked wheat tasting like cinnamon or cloves.

No way....the grid cannot be adjusted small enough to stop the seeds of berries. Even grape seed can go thru on the tightest setting.

If you are referring to a "drying mat" that is used for dishes than yes it should work, just know the length is true to the size of a paper towels.

Depends what you used the cheesecloth for. The double mesh definitely filters more than the single screen strainers. With cheesecloth you can squeeze out more moisture which is harder with a strainer.

Actually, I answered about the entire width of the screen. If your drying screen is 12", the insert will fit. Sorry for the confusion.

I haven't tried dried blackberry vines, but they should be fine since the diameter is relatively small. If you put something in that is too fat, it basically chokes.

I think it could be used to cut dried herbs, although you might want to use a container with sides to do it. I would not use it for seeds. The cutting wheels are too far apart and the seeds would just slide out of the way.

I went to The Sprout House link & it says it is.I also have since read you can use simple window screen underneath a mason jar lid.

You do have to drain the water. I think what it does is hept to germinate the wheat berries but you don't want them to sit in the water cause the wheat would go bad. I also only did this once a day. There are a bunch of "how to" videos about sprouting on YouTube.

Yes, though it might not take out really fine seeds. It would certainly work on raspberry and blackberry seeds. The sieve part has very small holes, about 1mm.

The standard screen that I used for tomatoes, etc. A Berry screen that I used for Blackberries and a Pumpkin screen. I love this item and highly recommend it. You can find a cheaper plastic one but I have had both and I will stay with the stainless steel one. It is much sturdier.

There are two screens and well worth it if you are doing small items or 'wet' items like watermelon or fresh pineapple. These tend to stick to the dryer trays.

I grind wheat berries in mine all the time. It works well. Just don't expect much at a time. I get two cups of flour in about fifteen minutes then I let the grinder cool. It's enough for some delicious wheat bread.

I have used my clean-a-screens to dehydrate parsley. The holes in the screen are about 1/8" x 1/8".

Hi Gerald-- To be honest, I don't think it was meant for that type of application but I'm semi-impressed it worked at all! Have you considered just getting a grain mill? I think Amazon sell a variety of models that should do the job right for you. Good luck!

just be sure to allow a few inches in the back for ventillation as this is were the dryer gets its air from. It might be useful putting a screen back there or something to help in this since it will be in a confined area.
