I found this press at an outdoor fleamarket, a few days ago. The old man who had it said it was a fruit press and a sausage stuffer... I do not beleive it would work for meat of any kind.. I think he simply didn't know what he had..
Do any of you know anything about it??
We dropped a couple whole oranges into it and it pressed them so well, we had to pry them back out absolutely juiceless..and the effort was not that great..I was thinking it would work great on fruit in a nylon bag.
It is cast iron
It say's Enterprise MFG Co, Phili'A USA
Patented April 10 1837, July 11 1876
#25 larg plate on the bottom of the press plate
the # 2 on the exterior bottom of the cylinder
at some point it was painted, and has some indercernable stensiling on the side.
It is easy to completely dissasemble it for cleaning..
