Description
Straining is a mechanical separation technique that removes solids from liquids by passing the mixture through a porous barrier.
Technical
During straining, the liquid phase is forced through a filter medium while the suspended solids are retained. The process reduces turbidity and concentrates the desired components, often altering the viscosity and flavor profile. Temperature and filter pore size influence the efficiency of separation and the retention of volatile flavor compounds.
