 Wish I Had One Sooner!Feb 01, 2008
By Todd J. Madsen
With the Caipirinha being my favorite mixed drink, I have always used a wooden pestle/muddle, and never knew the difference - until now.
This pestle/muddle is very comfortable in the hand, and the diameter is large enough that it is easy to grasp and does not slip through the hand when applying pressure to mash the fruit.
The length is very nice, at 25cm (about 10 inches). I actually purchased this and another brand as I though this would be somewhat cheap in appearance, but was happy to see it is a quality product - no need to spend the extra money on another one - this is a nice product, and will take care of all your needs.
This MIU pestle/muddle is less expensive than the Rosle Fruit Muddle / Caipirinha Pestle', and is different in the following ways:
*Smaller diameter
*1/4 inch longer in length
*The green head which mashes the fruit is flat on the Rosle, whereas the head on the MIU is concave, which means it will not mash quite as easily or well, but will get the job done.
I highly recommend both this MIU and the Rosle pestle/muddle. Not only do they function well, but they look very cool when you pull them out to mix up a Caipirinha for you and your friends!

mash away!Jul 26, 2008
By Pirate Jenny
i'm not a fan of the lime-and-mint combination in a mojito, but i LOVE caipirinhas and i prepare lime-ade almost every day! i love the heft of this muddler; sometimes i get "twinges" when i use a can opener, mash stuff with a fork or grind spices in my molcajete, but the weight and leverage of this muddler made my work much easier! also it's long enough to work in a pitcher, deep bowl/pot/jar.
i mashed up 12 avocados all at once in a big bowl in less than 10 minutes (that includes cutting and scooping time)--and it was so smooth and creamy, with so little effort! normally i mash 1/2 an avocado at a time on a saucer and then scrape it into the guacamole bowl...tedious!
also good for home canning/pickling; tamping out air bubbles or foods into a jar, esp if they need to be covered by a layer of liquid (like homemade sauerkraut and green tomato pickles)...could be used for soft fruits & cooked foods for baby...and if you have ever bought natural tahini, peanut butter, etc, you know how the oil separates...i don't think it's any fun to mix them up--i've tried draining off the oil but then the "butter" is very "cementy" and scraping it out of the jar into a bowl or food processor is just an awful greasy mess. my attempts to mix in the jar have often ended with oil on my shirt, the counter, the floor, all the while fearing the jar might bust and shred my hand...this is a chore i've hated since childhood! however, with my new muddler i mixed some VERY separated tahini i had been pointedly ignoring for about a year, in record time & with minimal effort, right in the jar...every hippy needs one of these! mom, want one for christmas? :D
the bottom surface is scored into points and slightly concave; i tried breaking up some very lumpy granola and crushing cookies into crumbs and it didn't work as well as i hoped (but i've always used a rolling pin or my volcanic-rock pestle for that kind of thing; i'll try not to die of disappointment). the only improvement i can think of might be to make the other end rounded so it could double as a pestle; on the other hand, the metal top is perfectly flat and some people might prefer that as another mashing surface and/or a place to rest your thumb.

 UncomfortableJul 08, 2008
By M. Fathauer
Nice heft and length. I prefer a flat and non-concave muddling "end" and this one is concave. Biggest complaint is that the top end has non-rounded edges and aggressive muddling results in sore red depressions on the palm.

great muddler!Jan 19, 2008
By S. Cisneros
This is a great muddler. It is extra long for large tins and crushes the ice really easily. Perfect for a professional bartender.

 Nice; Some Complaints; Not GreenNov 17, 2009
By John Miller
"tungstenCoil"
I just purchased this muddler.
Pros: nice heft! Good teeth.
Cons: Concave bottom (doesn't render it useless, but it would be better flat). Manufacturing process had flash on the teeth (little bits that should have been cut off or otherwise removed, where there are seams or edges) and around the base where the head meets the shaft.
Finally: they put a big UPC sticker on it, with regular sticky glue. I hate that! It's difficult to get totally off, even with glue remover. Shame on them.
