Fresh apple juice made at home is unbelievably sweet and good. Pressing apples is a wonderful a family project with a very sweet reward in the end. You’ll probably be sneaking sips before the pressing is complete. Load crushed fruit into the barrel cage, ratchet down the press and the juice is squeezed out of apples, pears and grapes. The heavy-duty, powder-coated cast iron, double ratcheting head presses with more force and pressure which eases the labor. Even kids can help squeeze the apples. The 16-quart capacity cage sits on a stand with easy pour bottom spout to catch the juice. The base is enameled steel and the cage is hardwood, 36” tall x 21-1/2” in diameter. Quicky and easy clean-up, one year manufacturer’s warranty.
