Awesome video, I have only recently started making smoothies and the flavour that blackberries give is amazing but the seeds have been so annoying. I can't wait to try out this method, thank you!
Thank you so much for this video! I couldn't drink smoothies because of the seeds giving me digestive issues. Now I am enjoying my morning protein berry smoothie every day with 0 issues!
Thank goodness for this tip! My mixed berry mix has black berries and I just couldn't drink my smoothie with all seeds. Tasted good but was too annoying.
Have to say came in expecting a pretty cookie cutter home-made video. Minus the recording equipment of course all the instructions and little details really make this video as good as it gets.
The crank-sifter tip was great, thank you. :) Tip in kind: I avoid letting seeds go down the drain and occassionally use copper sulfate to kill off sprouts/roots in the drain and septic. Ours isn't the only irritable plumbing.
This is so great! I was so disappointed that I couldn't have smoothies with any small seeds in it after my wisdom teeth removal. I will be careful still, but now I can have my smoothies- seedless!
The blackberry seeds were ruining my smoothies, the sifter worked great! I tried it today with oat milk and yogurt-ice-cubes, or a deliciously cold and creamy smoothie!
I got my sifter at Walmart. I'm sure you could freeze the blended solution of frozen berries and milk, but does that really save enough time to be worth it? It's so quick and easy to run it through the sifter. Good luck!
The only flour sifter I've tried is the one that's available at Walmart, and it works great. I'm guessing there's a standard size screen for most flour sifters, though. I haven't tried my sifter on blueberries. The seeds are so small they don't bother me, so I don't know if they would go through a flour sifter screen or not. You should try it and let us know! Someone else suggested a blender that simply blends up the seeds into such small pieces you can't tell them from the fruit, but I've never tried this.
What the heck, why have I been destroying my teeth? Lol. Thanks for the tip. I wonder if this would work for fast filtering cold brew coffee as well? I usually filter through a screen and then a paper to remove fines, but it takes forever, and the sifter looks like it might speed up the process.
do you get pulp or just juice? There is a lot of fiber/nutrients in the pulp so I hate to throw it out. Its just those damm seeds get stuck in my teeth. Would be nice to see what is left before you rinse it out.
Most of the pulp goes through, it's just a little bit finer than it was before it went through. A small amount stays in the sifter, I'm guessing a couple of tablespoons. If you sift longer than I did, more will go through.

So glad it was a help.

So glad it's making a difference for you.

I never thought of doing this, which is probably because I've never used a crank sifter! Thank you very much😊
They're kind of fun! Glad it was a help.
Aww my gramma used to have one I used as a child 😊 I liked to experiment in the kitchen with cookies when I was 10
That idea is GENIUS! I actually have a flour sifter that I literally NEVER use.
Yep, that's all I use my flour sifter for. I don't know anyone who actually sifts flour. 🙂
Finally some common sense on this subject! I was looking for a way to start in the blender since smoothies are my goal Thank you so much 1💜
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you I’m going to make a purée for my 6 month old 😁
Update- it worked!!!
Have to say came in expecting a pretty cookie cutter home-made video. Minus the recording equipment of course all the instructions and little details really make this video as good as it gets.
Wow, thanks!

Did it work with the strawberry seeds?
Thank you!

Thank you so much I hate seed also but I am super exciting to try this.
Hope it's a help!
The blackberry seeds were ruining my smoothies, the sifter worked great!
I tried it today with oat milk and yogurt-ice-cubes, or a deliciously cold and creamy smoothie!
I didnt have aa flour shifter but a mesh strainer, a rubber spatula, and 30 mins of mushing by hand works too
Looks god. I wonder how a teaspoon of sweetened condensed milk will make it taste. I put it in my avocado smoothie.
Thank you so much for this video - I am ordering a flour sifter tonight :)
So glad it was a help!
Great tip, I need to try this, thank you

Thank you! Now to find the old-fashioned flour sifter! I'm wondering if you could freeze the blackberries an milk after sifting for use later.
I got my sifter at Walmart. I'm sure you could freeze the blended solution of frozen berries and milk, but does that really save enough time to be worth it? It's so quick and easy to run it through the sifter. Good luck!
Thank you for sharing and thanks for the thyroid info.
So glad it was a help!
Thank you
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Would any flour sifter work? And for super small seeds in blueberries
The only flour sifter I've tried is the one that's available at Walmart, and it works great. I'm guessing there's a standard size screen for most flour sifters, though. I haven't tried my sifter on blueberries. The seeds are so small they don't bother me, so I don't know if they would go through a flour sifter screen or not. You should try it and let us know! Someone else suggested a blender that simply blends up the seeds into such small pieces you can't tell them from the fruit, but I've never tried this.
I make mine thick: no ice or yogurt, just a little milk.
What the heck, why have I been destroying my teeth? Lol. Thanks for the tip.
I wonder if this would work for fast filtering cold brew coffee as well? I usually filter through a screen and then a paper to remove fines, but it takes forever, and the sifter looks like it might speed up the process.
Would a wire strainer work?
It could work, but the four sifter wire forces it through the mesh with a lot less work. Good luck!
do you get pulp or just juice? There is a lot of fiber/nutrients in the pulp so I hate to throw it out. Its just those damm seeds get stuck in my teeth. Would be nice to see what is left before you rinse it out.
Most of the pulp goes through, it's just a little bit finer than it was before it went through. A small amount stays in the sifter, I'm guessing a couple of tablespoons. If you sift longer than I did, more will go through.
or buy a vitamix and pulverize the blackberry into a seedless joy in about a minute on high.
That sounds like an interesting alternative.
Lol I just bought a flour sifter a few weeks ago
Removing blackberry seeds is literally the only thing I use my flour sifter for. 🙂
I like to put a clean rag over a brim and poor into another cup
Sounds messy! 🙂
queen you have saved my life
So happy to hear it was a help!
