| 40L Bladder Press | | The Bladder Press was designed to improve the traditional wooden-basket ratchet-style press and has quickly become the preferred method for juice extraction. A rubber bladder expands from the stem outward using water pressure-pressing the fruit against the sides of the cage. This style of pressing is much more subtle and softer on the fruit, not allowing bitter tannins from seeds and skins to be extracted from the cracked seeds. This is also a more efficient method of pressing- cutting the cycle down to less than half the time a ratchet-style press would take. It's also much faster improving the load - squeeze - clean cycle to around 20 minutes from the 1-2 hours required for a traditional press. Water is recommended to inflate the press rather than air; no more than 30psi is needed for most fruits. The standard models have a stainless cage with painted lid and basin. Connect to your garden hose faucet and squeeze out the juice. Once you try it you'll never return to a traditional basket press.
