Okay...I messed up! I guess last time I used my tomato mill, I failed to give it a proper cleaning. I picked up a bunch of tomatoes from the discount veggie rack at the grocery store, stewed them up and put them through my mill to make a sauce. Well...as I was turning the handle, the sauce was comin' out dirty...and the smell..it was nasty!! Apparently, mold had built up within the screen... I have yet to figure out how to take it apart, when I do...what does everyone suggest to use to clean it? Is there still hope? Would anyone trust it again? Thanks! Christina

If you clean the parts with a detergent, preferably one that says it "kills mold and mildew" it will be fine. You can use baking soda to mix with the detergent if you need a little abrasiveness to clean it.

Mine is red plastic...it has the crank on the side...the hopper at the top. It seems to be all in one piece...I can't figure out how to take it apart to give it a proper cleaning. I had to order it through the mail...I couldn't find one anywhere here in Sarnia where I live.
As I'm typing this...my boyfriend just figured out how to take it apart...I'm thinkin' just boilin' water????
