OK,
I will be in the market soon for a press of some sort. I will be moving up to grape buckets and do not want to mess with large muslin bags and hand mashing.
Both of the above items will accomplish a press at about the same price. The Wineeasy 30gal, with piston and pump is about $1100 and a 40L press is about the same.
The wineeasy will press at 14-15mmHg whereas the bladder will press higher.
1. I want to also be able to do other fruits and ciders so I think I can use either.
2. I do not think I will be filling the bladder press full each batch, at most 1/2 to 3/4 based on the volumes of wines I make. Will this be a problem?
3. The wineeasy also gives me another fermentation tank, not that I need it, but at similar price I am having a tough time deciding between the 2.
What do you think?
