Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Want to cut the fat--and the calories--from the roasting juices of your Thanksgiving turkey before you make gravy? How about defatting that beef-and-barley soup? For those and other big chores, you need a sizable separator, like this one. Just pour the liquid (up to five cups at a time) into the separator, let the fats rise to the top, and then pour the good stuff into another container from the spout that draws from the separator's bottom. The layer of fat stays behind in the separator. Other uses: The separator is gauged in cups and milliliters, so it can be used to measure liquids. It's also tall enough (5-3/8 inches) and attractive enough to double as a pitcher. --Fred Brack

Does the job, although it's quite big,
This review is from: Pedrini Gravy Separator (Kitchen)
We roast meat a couple of times a week, and it's usually just for the two of us, as our six-month old daughter isn't quite up to roast lamb just yet. So the juice from our joint barely comes up to a centimetre from the bottom of this pot. This is not a problem for separation, as the juices stay at the bottom when you tilt the separator, and the fat comes off the top. So you can get rid of most of the fat, and this really improves the gravy. So it works well, but a smaller version would have been even more useful for a small family like mine. I would definitely recommend this if you do a big roast, and want to separate out the juices.

Recommended,
This review is from: Pedrini Gravy Separator (Kitchen)
This works well, and thanks to its design, it cleans up easily in the dishwasher. I have another one with a very thin spout and I have to wash it by hand if I let it sit at all after using it because the dishwasher jets can't seem to get into its narrow opening; it's a real pain. I do not have that problem with this design.
To answer another reviewers' question on plasic vs. glass separaters -- I had a glass one and it broke despite being touted as heat resistant glass. When I poured hot gravy into it last Thanksgiving, the glass went flying everywhere as it broke right in my hand! Admittedly, that was an older one and perhaps the newer glass versions are more rugged when it comes to heat.

microwave safe,
By giancarlo (Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pedrini Gravy Separator (Kitchen)
There are different kind of plastics.This is made of durable and translucent lexan and it is microwave and dishwasher safe. Plus it does not break if it falls down. It is safer than using glass. It was rated number one gravy separator in a well recognized U.S. magazine. I'm very proud of this product because I am the manufacturer.
