How to quickly sort out blueberries. I adapted the known method for myself and was satisfied

The berry season is gradually dwindling, but I still want to share with you a randomly found blueberry picking method. It is lightweight, dynamic and organized from scrap materials.

Everyone_475fc “/sc My name is Alexandra. And I m new to berry picking 🙂 Hello everyone, my name is Alexandra. And I m new to berry picking 🙂

This year was my debut in terms of berry picking¹ . In the middle of summer, for the first time, I consciously went into the forest to` `pick berries. I took my friend, took boots, protective clothing, bucket, harvester and was ready for a huge catch.

There was no huge catch. There were about 2/3 of the bucket, because we did not know the forest and were bad looking for berries. We wandered through the forest for 4-5 hours and were very tired. But at home there was a different kind of entertainment waiting for me. It was necessary to sort out the loot.

Here s my catch. It is small for those who are constantly engaged in this, but this is the largest collection of mine (so far, hehe), which I have. Here is my catch. It is small for those who are constantly engaged in this, but this is the largest collection of mine (so far, hehe), which I had

understood that to sort out such an amount of “ catch manually is stupid. Of course, there are methods already invented before me that you just need to find. After talking with the older generation and looking for information on the Internet, I chose the appropriate method.

In order to photograph this method in maximum detail and understand its effectiveness (to time the time, I didn’t do it for the first time), I made an attempt to go for a berry again. To have something to sort out. But the berries were no longer in the forest, so I can’t guide you in terms of speed. Here is an example of blueberries that I haven’t looked through yet. A bunch of leaves, sticks, needles Here is an example of blueberries that I haven’t gone through yet. A bunch of leaves, sticks, needles

So, I chose a method in which leaves and twigs are collected using fabric … The internet offered a regular rough cloth, which I didn t have. But there was gauze.

And then there were two wooden slats, a small table , a stool (an inverted bucket would do) and a bowl.

I was very fortunate that the gauze was sold on a roll. It turned out to be convenient to cut the “ lane from her. I was also lucky with the slats, but I think that instead of them something else can be adapted … I was very lucky that the gauze was sold on a roll. It turned out to be convenient to cut the “ lane from her. I was also lucky with the slats, but I think that instead of them something else can be adapted …

I unwound the gauze, laid out path along the table … Then I put the slats on the gauze so that they taper towards the end of the table . I set the table itself in an inclined position , for which I leaned it over the sofa cushions.

It looks something like this, but I made the tilt angle at the table more. You need to select it according to your feelings It looks something like this, but the angle of inclination at the table I did more. You need to choose it according to your feelings

At the other end of the table, I put the bowl on an inverted bucket. For the first time, my husband was sitting there on a stool with a container in his hands. As soon as one container was full, he substituted another. So at this point I also divided the blueberries into containers.

The process itself is this : pour blueberries onto cheesecloth or cloth, it rolls into a bowl, and the leaves and twigs rub against behind the gauze and remain on it.

I really liked the result. It would take a long time, difficult, and with a great strain on the eyes and back, by hand. And after several hours of wandering through the forest, I don t want to pick the berries, but quickly go to rest 🙂 I really liked the result. It would take a long time, difficult, and with a lot of stress on the eyes and back, by hand. And after a few hours of wandering through the forest, you don t want to pick the berries, but rather go to rest 🙂 nuances. First, blueberries don t always want to roll down. And to speed up the process, I pretended to be a shaker ?

I quickly moved the slats horizontally back and forth in a small range so that the gauze “ shook & # 39 ;, throwing the blueberries down. That is, I kind of slightly vibrated with these slats , which caused the gauze under them to move too.

With this “ vibration gauze can slide off (you can see in the photo that it went in waves), so you need to get a little tricky. But once you get the hang of it, it goes fast gauze can slide off (you can see in the photo that it went in waves), so you need to get a little tricky. But as soon as you get the hang of it, things go quickly

Secondly, blueberries should be served in portions. And as soon as a lot of leaves and sticks accumulate on the gauze, it must be shaken off . Otherwise, the berries begin to knock down the leaves and drag them into the bowl with them. I shook the gauze out the window.

Leaves and twigs cling to fabric (in my case, to gauze) Leaves and twigs cling to fabric (in my case, gauze)

B- Third, for this whole system to work, you need to get a handle on it. Find the desired angle of inclination of the table , for example. Too small – blueberries won t roll. Too big – it flies so fast that it jumps out of the bowl and flies around the room.

It s still fun, interesting and, in my opinion, a pretty quick way to sort out the berries . But I have nothing to compare with.

Intermediate result, blueberries after selection in the way I suggested. There were a couple of leaflets here. Of those that stick tightly to the berry. I think this is a very good result.
