Need a decent fruit press

[OwlHoot]

With a view to starting winemaking I did a search on fruit presses, and all I could find were cheap nasty little wooden things that various experts on relevant forums were confident would barely last a year. Also, the sizes were derisory, such as 1 litre and 5.5 litres.

Anyone know where I can buy a *proper* fruit press, with a titanium pot and at least 10 litre capacity. I'll make do with steel if I have to, but no aluminium rubbish.

A fruit press? Are you sure? I just pulp the stuff in a bucket using a fecking great blade attachment on my power drill.

They do exist (this link might work) but if you're just starting out are you sure you want to commit to the expenditure?

Edit: drill attachment with lid. I didn't pay that much for it.

Edit: You can also get a degasser that fits in your power drill for removing CO2.

I've got one of these:

Works a treat and the most important thing is that you can really crank it without fear of it breaking. Beware of some presses - I had one with a cast metal frame (aluminum?) that I wanted to use for pressing apples. Not up to the job - I broke 2 of them & had to really blag to get my money back on the second occassion.

What you pressing at this time of year?
