Regency Natural Ultra Fine 100% Cotton Cheesecloth 9sq.ft Reviews

Customer Ratings:

Since the size of the cheesecloth is not in the product description, I thought I'd let everyone know that the product is actually 9Sq Ft (1 Sq Yd) Which makes it slightly more expensive than the other cheesecloths on the site.

and I can say that, having used two other types of cheesecloth, this is a pretty darn good find. I was half expecting the weave to be a little finer than it is, given that "Ultra Fine" is in its name, but in practical usage it's plenty fine enough. Any finer and you should just use a coffee filter, and even though a coffee filter will get you a slightly clearer product, the yield from this cheesecloth isn't far off at all (and you'll get your liquid strained in a fraction of the time it'd take to drip through a paper filter). It most definitely is, however, noticeably clearer than what you would get from using plain jane supermarket cheesecloth. Just tonight we had hotpot (like a Chinese version of shabu shabu), and I used this cheesecloth to strain out all the gunk in the broth from cooking red meat... it also managed to capture a good deal of the oils floating on top. It's also sturdy enough that I could gently scrape the cheesecloth with a spoon while straining to prevent it from getting totally clogged up and speed up the process. I've yet to do any gelatin clarification with this cloth, but I'm sure it'll perform perfectly well (if I don't update to the contrary, assume no news is good news). Besides, a tiny bit of opacity in the broth is totally acceptable in my home as long as there aren't any separating bits of random sediments settling at the bottom. Personally, I'll take broth over consomme any day for the better mouth feel, but I digress.

Anyway, great cheesecloth, reasonably sturdy, not too absorptive, fine weave... I'll most definitely be stocking up on this one.

Larger than I expected, but pleasantly surprised. The weave is tight, though I have found myself doubling from time to time (which is where the extra length comes in handy). I use it to make ricotta and other simple cheeses, straining fruits and veggies, etc. Just rinse it out and drape it somewhere to air dry. Love it and take care of it and it'll lasts forever.

I use this primarily to strain and thicken homemade yogurt and for the occasional bouquet garni. Cheesecloth can get pretty pricey but this one is good quality and a good value.

This works well for what I wanted. To keep bugs out of jars and still allow air in.

With that being said, the amount of cloth is teeny tiny.

Would I say it is "Ultra Fine"? No. They should just put thread counts or something more definitive that is not subject to interpretation. One person's ultra fine could be someone else's "wide open not fine at all."

Oh here we go, wikipedia has a cheese cloth grading system:

Grade Vertical × horizontal threads per inch

#10 20 × 12

#40 24 × 20

#50 28 × 24

#60 32 × 28

#90 44 × 36

Not sure if this is accurate but I am sure it is better than the description here on amazon. Ultra fine? Whatever that means.
