A model of the fruit press for commercial and private use, which is suitable for home winemaking, cider making or small production of juice.

5 buckets of crushed apples are placed in the basket. In one cycle of operation (loading crushed fruit, squeezing juice, unloading) 25-35 liters of juice can be produced.

For crushing fruit in terms of productivity, an electric fruit crusher ESE-055 is enough. With this kit, more than 200 liters of juice per hour can be squeezed, if several people work at the same time, for example, the whole family. The first person picks and washes the fruit, the second crushes the apples, and the third person presses the juice. This fruit press can also be used for pressing juice from pears, grapes, other berries, other fruits and vegetables.

Stainless steel basket, piston and drain pan

All parts of the press in contact with juice, as well as fasteners are made of food grade stainless steel AISI 304. Juice collection drain pan – thickness 1,5 mm; basket – thickness 2 mm; piston – thickness 10 mm.

Convenient design

Powder coating of the frame creates a strong and durable protective coating. On the top of the frame there is a special stop for centering the jack.

Piston rings make it easy to remove. There are plastic feet on the base of the press for easy carrying and protection of the frame coating.

For the convenience of working with the press, a silicone tube can be put on the tube of the drain pan, the other end of which can be placed in the juice container. For this press, a 26x32 mm tube is suitable.

Everything you need to get started is already included in the set

The press set includes: metal frame with wooden platform, juice collection drain pan, basket, piston, wooden blocks (pine) – 5 pcs., 5T hydraulic jack, filtration bag (100% polyester), user guide.

Choosing a juice filtration bag

To obtain pure juice with a minimum pulp content, you need to use bags with a fine mesh: 100% polyester (lavsan) or 100% linen. Such a bag is suitable for squeezing juice from apples, pears, pineapple, ginger, rhubarb, grapes and other juicy hard fruits, berries or vegetables that contain large fibers. Berries and fruits with fine fibers will clog the filtration bag (e.g. black currant, plum, peach, etc.).

Linen fabric is very strong, one of the few fabrics that is stronger when wet rather than when dry. Linen bags are a little bit more expensive, but more environmentally friendly, since when replacing the bag, plastic does not get into nature. Linen is a natural fiber that is completely biodegradable.

If you would like to have juice with pulp, then you need to use a bag with a coarse mesh (100% polypropylene). Such a bag is suitable for pressing juice from plums, apricots, peaches, red currants, black currants and other berries and fruits. A coarse mesh bag can also be used for apples, pears and grapes, but the juice will be less clear in this case.

Recommendation: It is always good to have one spare bag so that the juice making process does not stop due to a torn filtration bag.
