What makes us special
This apple press is at the top end of our hobby range and the start of our commercial range, and replicates the action of a traditional 'pack' press
Rack and cloth apple and fruit and cider press
Delivery charge £5 on this item (geographical restrictions & conditions apply). This item is a Large Item. See Delivery.
We recommend using an electric Mill (available separately), mill the apples. Swing the hinged cross beam off the press. Place an acacia rack on the juice tray and position the former on the rack. Drape a cloth over the former and fill the cloth with crushed apples (2" deep). Fold the edges of the cloth into the centre. Remove the former and place an acacia rack on top of the cloth, and repeat this process until you have several layers - known as a 'cheese'. There is no need to place an acacia rack on top of the final cheese.
Place the heavy wooden pressure/bearing block on top of the 'cheese', lining the screw up with metal bearing. Place the handle in the slot and use the ratchet mechanism to lower the pressure plate. The thin layers of pomace allow the juice to flow laterally to give a quick and high yield of juice. 2 buckets of at least 27.5 litre capacity will be needed to catch the juice.
Easy to clean, simply hose down with fresh water after use and dry with a clean cloth. Lubricate the non-food contact metal parts with food grade grease; this will also inhibit corrosion of these parts. Store in a clean, dry place.
