Crushing and Pressing Small Batches

Jan 11, 2008 1 Replies

Much of what I've made so far has been from concentrate, but when the need has arisen to crush and press fruit I've ended up using an odd assortment of kitchen utensils and food grade pails.



I'd like to invest in some tools designed for this purpose and I was wondering what you all would suggest. I'm working primarily with 1 and



3 gallon batches at this point, so I don't need anything too large.

Thanks,



Greg


3 food grade pails.

Drill 1/8" holes all over the bottom and 1/3 of the way up the sides of one.

Use one to catch, then the press basket and another on top to depress the must.
