grape press
Any one have any designs for a grape press that I could make. I have about 20 ltrs of grapes so I need to keep wastage to the minimum.
 Bought an AWThomson juicer but the small print says unsuitable for grapes as it tears the pips, releasing too many of the tannins.  Last edited by Brewer-again : 10-01-2008 at 08:47 PM. Reason: stupidity

Well, traditionally it was done with the feet, wasn't it? Tho' I suspect that that is not terribly helpful.

This would be perfectly adequate for pressing grapes, and you'll be sorted for pressing apples in the Autumn.

thanks 'littlemark', I will build one with a basic upright square frame with the lower tray being raised using my car jack from underneath to prevent contamination.
