I've got the Chef now I'm off to research a sieve attachment. Thanks Bren.
I’ve got a chef too.
And I also want a sieve attachment now.

Posted that before I read JJB’s post saying that it would cost eighty quid!

Have a look on ebay I bought mine from there about 10 years ago.

That was the ebay price. Unfortunately the attachment has been discontinued so any seller can name their price. It seems, from just a cursory glance through the listings, that it's available in the States. Also beware those on sale might not fit all models.

P doesn't mind raspberry seeds but blackberry ones don't soften and are numerous.  In the past I've boiled 'em up and pressed them through a sieve, which is darned time consuming.  I'm considering getting a rotary mouli mill, any experience of these out there?
Saw this on a FB page about jam making  - and I thought of you!

[color=var(--primary-text)][color=var(--primary-text)]I bought a stainless steel moulin from Nisbets last year for around £45. It has 3 different plates, and it squishes your berries and separates the seeds. Much easier than muslins and sieves[/color]

I too got the idea from some recipe site, my site said she got her mouli from a thrift shop for $5. £45 sounds a bit steep for just once a year. I'm still dithering about an amazon cheap one.

I made a jar and a half of Mango chutney out of odds and ends!
Three mangoes, brown sugar and distilled malt vinegar, a sachet of lemon grass, ginger and garlic puree (should have been fresh ginger, powdered ginger and garlic), chilli flakes (should have been a fresh chilli). The recipe was for microwave cooking but I didn't fancy that lot bubbling over in the microwave so I did it on the hob.
Tastes OK but I'll let it stand for a few weeks before trying it.
