Wine Press: Hardwood

Key Features:

1. Sturdy Construction:
   • Crafted from durable materials, the Wine Press 12L features:
     • Beechwood Basket: The wooden basket holds the fruit pulp securely during pressing.
     • Cast Iron Components: The pressure plate and other parts are made of robust cast iron.
   • The combination of wood and metal ensures longevity and reliable performance.
2. Dual Bucket System:
   • The press consists of two stainless steel buckets:
     • Inner Mesh Bucket (7.6 liters): This mesh bucket holds the fruit pulp during pressing.
     • Outer Bucket (12 liters): Positioned directly under the pressure plate, it collects the juice that flows off.
   • The separation of juice from residue is ideal, resulting in clear, flavorful liquid.
3. Easy Operation:
   • Follow these steps for efficient juice extraction:
     1. Clean and Sanitize: Prepare the wine press.
     2. Assemble: Set up the press and place the white muslin cloth liner.
     3. Load Must: Pour your must (3-7 days old fermenting grape juice) into the press.
     4. Pressing: Screw down the wooden lid to compress the pulp.
     5. Collect Juice: Wait for the juice to drain off completely.
     6. Reuse Residue: Dispose of seeds and skin in compost; use it back in your vineyard.
4. Bitterness Prevention:
   • One of the biggest reason for bitterness in home made wine is the seeds getting crushed in the juicer/mixier. This hardwood wine press is designed to prevent that so that your home made wine and kombucha tastes exactly like French imported wines.
