I would never buy a cloth. Even if $2.00 its not in my budget with all the rags around this house that can do and in a jam there are always paper towels. - For almond milk, the smallest colander does not due. I really need need a cloth of some sort. For my blog, almond milk is basic. There is not a week that I do not make it.
