I'm considering my options in preparation for buying a press for wine grapes. I had 650 pounds of grapes last year, will surpass that a bit this year. My supplier has a great crusher/destemmer that he lets me use, and I have carted all of my fermented juice & must back to the shop to use his press. I want to avoid that last step in the future, so am going to invest in a good wine press. So I am looking for advice.
I can certainly get a larger size (#40 or #45) painted steel and wood model that is widely available. I'm open to suggestions on those. However...
I am also considering a similar-sized stainless steel ratchet press. They come in sizes that seem appropriate for a home wine maker as well as larger commercial sizes. Does anyone have experience with this style of press?
I'd love advice and recommendations.
Thanks for the help!
