Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
"The Perthshire Preserve Co.," a family-run business in Perth, Scotland, needed to scale up their production of artisanal jams without losing their signature handmade quality. Their domestic food mill was struggling with the volume, often leaving seeds behind in their popular raspberry and bramble preserves.
"We switched to the Louis Tellier HY024 and the difference was immediate. The stainless steel build is tough, and the fine sieve gets every last seed out. It’s given our preserves a much more professional, high-end finish that our customers have noticed."
Ewan McGregor – Founder & Chief Jam Maker
The upgrade allowed them to process fruit 30% faster and completely eliminated customer complaints about seeds, solidifying their reputation for premium quality.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, wash all parts in warm, soapy water.
- Select the desired sieve and place it in the base of the mill body.
- Insert the blade and axle, ensuring it sits correctly on the sieve.
- Place the two hooks securely over the rim of a sturdy bowl or saucepan.
Keeping It Going
- Disassemble and rinse immediately after use to prevent food from drying on.
- All parts are stainless steel and can be washed thoroughly with hot water and detergent.
- Pay special attention to cleaning the mesh of the sieves to remove any residue.
- Dry all components completely before reassembling or storing to maintain its condition.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this food mill handle hot foods like cooked potatoes or tomatoes?
A: Yes, absolutely. The stainless steel construction is designed to handle hot foods directly from the pot, making it perfect for preparing mash or passata.
Q: How effective is it at removing seeds from berries?
A: It's extremely effective. Using the finest sieve (1.5mm), it will separate raspberry, blackberry, and strawberry seeds to produce a perfectly smooth, seedless coulis or purée.
Q: Is this product dishwasher safe?
A: While the stainless steel components are robust, we recommend hand washing to ensure the fine mesh sieves are cleaned thoroughly and to maintain the tool's longevity.
Q: What's the main difference between using this and a food processor or blender?
A: A food mill pushes food through a sieve, separating skins and seeds while creating a light, airy texture. A blender or processor simply blitzes everything together, which can create a denser, sometimes gummy texture and doesn't remove unwanted elements.
Q: How do you change the sieves?
A: It's very simple. You just lift out the central blade and axle, swap the sieve grid at the bottom, and then replace the axle. No tools are needed.
Q: Can it be used for milling grains or flour?
A: No, this is a 'wet' food mill designed for processing cooked or soft fruits and vegetables. It is not suitable for milling hard, dry items like grains.
Q: Is the handle comfortable for processing larger quantities?
A: Yes, the handle is designed to be ergonomic, providing a smooth turning action that minimises wrist strain during use.
Q: How large a bowl or pan can it sit on?
A: The hooks are designed to fit securely on most standard commercial stockpots and mixing bowls, typically up to around 24cm in diameter.

Ever wondered how to get a perfectly smooth tomato passata versus a more rustic apple sauce? The secret is in the sieve size. The Louis Tellier HY024's interchangeable sieves are the key to unlocking total texture control in your kitchen. Think of it like having different lenses for a camera; each one gives you a completely different result from the same subject.
The 1.5mm sieve is your fine-detail tool, perfect for delicate raspberry coulis or silky, restaurant-quality sauces where any seed or fibre is unwelcome. Switch to the 2.5mm sieve for the fluffiest mashed potatoes or a classic vegetable purée with a little more body. For those heartier dishes, the 4mm sieve is ideal for creating chunkier fruit compotes or preparing vegetables for a rustic stew. It’s this simple, manual versatility that allows you to tailor every dish with precision.
