Apple Presses

Whether you have a single tree or an orchard, we can equip you to extract every possible drop of delicious golden nectar from your apples. Our apple grinders and presses have the durability to work reliably for years, and they’re designed to make your part simple, easy and enjoyable!

Once your fruit is off the tree, two basic operations are involved in extracting the juice. The first is grinding the apples to a pulp. If you try to press your apples whole, you’ll get very little juice from them. But running them through a proper grinder reduces them to tiny bits that are ready to release their juice in the press.

Apple Grinding

OurMaximizer® apple grinderdoes an outstanding job of preparing apples for the pressing stage. Built of heavy duty cast iron with a large laminated hardwood rotor, its stainless steel teeth are engineered to make short work of bushels of fruit. The Maximizer’s heavy duty flywheel provides the necessary momentum for smooth turning. This apple grinder can be mounted to the support of your choice, and our Maximizer line of apple presses includes an optional mount for the grinder that lets it lock into position over the press basket, then swing out of the way for pressing.

Another option is ourElectric Apple Grinder, which offers high speed operation that’s as easy as flipping a switch and pouring your apples in. A heavy duty baffled chute keeps hands safely away from rotating blades, and it will operate only with the chute and its attached guard in place.

Variety of Cider Presses

When your apples have been pulped, they’re ready for the cider press. Presses are available in several styles and capacities, from a 1.25 gallon tabletop fruit press clear up to a 80 liter (21 gallon) stainless steel model that operates by water pressure.

Starting at the top end: 80 liters is a lot of apple pulp—and ourStainless Steel Hydropressrapidly processes all of those apples in every cycle, with pressure provided by none other than your humble garden hose! Centered within the large stainless steel basket of the press is a cylindrical rubber bladder. With the turn of a valve, the pressure of your standard water supply expands the bladder and presses the juice out through the perforations of the basket. The hydropress is simple, fast, and highly effective!

OurMaximizer® apple cider presses是非常受欢迎的由于他们的能力,功能s and strength. Frame members are made of rectangular steel tubing with a wall thickness of 3/16”.

The basket is stainless steel, and sits on a stainless steel juice tray. The frame is powder coated for long, rust-free service. The tip-off yoke design is a convenient time-saver that’s easy to use.

MacIntosh apple pressesare offered in 4 and 5 gallon models. Like our Maximizer presses, they have tip-off yokes that provide quick, full access to the pressing basket. Their frames are heavy duty to withstand pressing forces, and they’re powder coated for lasting good looks and rust prevention. These apple presses have large diameter Acme forcing screws that let you bring lots of force to bear on your pulped apples, ensuring high juice yields. The T-handles on MacIntosh apple cider presses can be operated by one person, or you can share the load with an apple-pressing friend.
