VKP-250 Food Strainer

Applesauce

The VKP-250 Tomato & Food Strainer (formally known as the Johnny Apple Sauce Maker) features sturdy construction and an easy-to-use design. It clamps onto your table or counter edge (from 3/4" to 1-7/8" thick). Just place your fruit or vegetables in hopper and turn the large, comfortable handle. Peelings and seeds come out the end of the tomato strainer; tomato meat and juices flow through the perforated stainless steel outer tube and down the plastic chute. Hopper measures 4.75" x 7.75", with 2.1" diameter throat, capacity is 2.75 quarts. Disassembles quickly for easy cleanup. Mounting clamp is rubber insulated to protect countertops.

With an improved design, this new strainer is better than ever! It still makes all the great sauces, purees, juices and jams you love without painstaking peeling or coring. Quickly separates fruit and vegetable puree from unwanted skins, stems and seeds. An apple/tomato screen with 1.35mm holes is included. Add accessory screens to make your food strainer even more versatile!

Applesauce-ability included! Put peeled, cored & cooked apples in this strainer and it makes applesauce!

Great accessories: Optional auger and screens make grape juice, separate pumpkin meat and strain berries. Want to make salsa? There's no quicker or handier way of making salsa than this machine with the salsa-making screen.

My wife and I do a lot of online ordering and we have seldom dealt with a merchant as conscientious and professional as your organization. Thank you for your patience and outstanding customer service.

Chuck Hall, CA

Your level of customer service is something I've never experienced from another company. I'll be buying a Nutrimill soon, and I wouldn't consider buying it anywhere other than Pleasant Hill Grain!

Julie D., WA

Thanks for the quick service, and for shipping to the FPO address. It's been a total pleasure doing business with your company. This US sailor really appreciates your support.

Ted Williamson, USN, Iceland

This is my first experience with Pleasant Hill Grain and it's been a delight. I got all the information I needed and the experience left me with the belief that the company's concern for helping people doesn't just depend on making a sale.

Frank P. Besag, Ph.D., FL

I am so pleased with the professional way my order was handled. Such good service . . . thank you. I will recommend your company to my friends. I plan to order from you when I need something else.

I just got my first order and was very impressed by how nicely and carefully it was all packed. Nothing was damaged, and it gives me confidence that I can safely order other items from you.

It's important to support independent, ethical companies. Pleasant Hill makes it easy, and, well, pleasant. Their customer service and fast shipping make it painless. Thanks, Pleasant Hill!

PHG rocks my world! In a world where most businesses are in a race to the bottom... it is so unbelievably refreshing to receive this kind of customer care. PHG will be my first stop in future shopping.

John F., MI

Real people handling my order. Prompt delivery. No external ads. Quality products. It felt like I could have a conversation with a person who cared about the customer and the products. Pleasant Hill Grain will be my first shopping source now.

Good Machine from a Great Company

By Tanya C. in IL on 9/25/2017 Verified Buyer

I read a fair number of negative reviews re: the Victorio strainer. I bought mine from Pleasant Hill Grain because in about 10 years of dealing with them, their customer service has been excellent and there has never been a problem with the high quality items I have received from them. Regarding the strainer: after reading the user's manual, I realized that the people who had problems with this strainer hadn't read the instructions, hadn't understood the instructions, decided to ignore the instructions, or forgot the instructions! The strainer performed very well. It is easily assembled, disassembled, and cleaned. If you are considering purchasing the Victorio strainer, I say go for it! You can buy from PHG with confidence that you will receive great service and high quality, whatever you buy.

Wonderful thing

By Jane C. in NY on 9/08/2017 Verified Buyer

This is my second Victorio as a relative decided he couldn't live without that great thing and I was of the same opinion. Peace required two. Apples, tomatoes, and stringless, no lump winter squash, all prepared in minutes keeps the whole family happy, the larder stocked, and I can put up a batch or two after work and still have time to relax. It is wonderful!

Great Company To Deal With

By Phillip C. in PA on 1/29/2017 Verified Buyer

Ordered the Victorio Strainer. Was borrowing one and decided I wanted my own. My package arrived quickly and I couldn't believe the care you used in packaging it. Arrived in excellent condition. I also appreciated the free shipping option. I highly recommend Pleasant Hill Grain.

Excellent Investment

By Monica C., IA on 10/15/2017 Verified Buyer

This strainer will saves me so much time making tomato sauce and apple sauce! I don't know how I got along without it. I am pleased with the customer service and quality from Pleasant Hill Grain.

great value victorio strainer

By Susan G. in IN on 4/22/2016 Verified Buyer

Haven't tried it yet but looks excellent and was received within a few days of ordering. Would recommend ordering from Pleasant Hill Grain. I will check out your other products too.

New to Canning- Amazing Strainer!

By Jane in IN on 8/07/2020 Verified Buyer

I am new to canning and this strainer is a much-needed tool added to my kitchen. Easy to assemble and use. I have made 4 batches of spaghetti sauce so far. This saves so much time, and I probably wouldn’t have as much fun with tomatoes, if I didn’t have it! Customer Service was quick to respond when I had a question. Enjoy my purchase! Thank you, Pleasant Hill!

Tried It, Liked It

By David T. in CA on 9/21/2019 Verified Buyer

...So I got my own for grapes, apples and tomatoes. Came with a slightly cracked waste spout. The part seems flimsy, but non-essential - company will replace it. PHG was great to work with!

Love it

By Marie H. in TN on 12/04/2016 Verified Buyer

My parents have one that's lasted for years. Very excited to try mine out this summer.

Great Value

By Chris G. in IN on 6/17/2016 Verified Buyer

Borrowed one in the past and loved it, so needed one for myself. Arrived in a couple days and was in perfect condition due to being properly packed for shipping.

Less than half the time!

By Leslie B. in ID on 8/27/2020 Verified Buyer

I have an old all metal Squeezo and it was taking hours to get through a large box of tomatoes. Primarily bought this new product for the blackberries but when it arrived I decided to run both of them (old and new) on the tomatoes. What had taken me over 3 hours with my old Squeezo was done in less than 30 minutes. I was originally concerned with all the plastic parts but the performance certainly outdid my all metal machine.
