Mesh size and filtration basics Mesh indicates the number of openings per square inch. For example, 50 mesh has 50 openings per inch, while 500 mesh has 500 openings per inch. A higher mesh number means smaller holes and finer filtration. In addition to hole size, the effective filtration also relates to particle size: higher mesh yields smaller particulates that can be filtered out. The gauze is packaged folded, with each fold approximately 98 cm long. Recommended filtration ranges by application Wine and tea impurities: 150–200 mesh. For results, filter first with 100 mesh, then pass through 200 mesh for refinement. Soy milk: 100–150 mesh. Milk or juice: 200–250 mesh. Paint filtration: 80–200 mesh. Ground paint 80–100 mesh; paint 150–200 mesh. Practical use scenarios Home beverage clarification: Use 150–200 mesh to remove solids from wine or tea for a clearer drink, with a preparatory pass at 100 mesh if needed. Soy milk preparation: Grind or soak soybeans and filter the liquid through 100–150 mesh to achieve smooth, sediment soy milk. Dairy and paint workflows: Filter milk or juice with 200–250 mesh for finer clarification; use 80–200 mesh for filtering paint, with 80–100 for ground pigment and 150–200 for finished paint. Key attributes and benefits Versatile pore sizes enable precise filtration across beverages, plantbased milks, and coatings. Suitable for applications requiring progressively finer filtration by selecting the appropriate mesh range. Packaging is designed for practical storage and handling, with folds configured for convenient use in typical filtration setups.
