Bladder presses work by expanding a rubber bladder using household water pressure via a garden hose. Since the bladder is situated in the center of the press, the grapes/fruit are squeezed from the inside out in a uniform fashion even if the basket is only partially filled. This is a much more effective way of pressing fruit pulp as it allows a wider surface area for the juice to be extracted. Compared to traditional hydraulic top down presses, large amounts of streaming and blockages would be trapped within the bulk matter. The hydropress is also used on a mammoth scale in wineries as it is by far the most effective means of extraction without electrical power.

When pressing normal mains water pressure of 2.5 to 3 bar it will generate around 20 tonnes of pressing power. The pressure applied and the duration of pressing can be regulated simply by opening or closing the water tap.

High-Quality Material:

This water-powered press is made of food-grade stainless steel, resistant to rust and corrosion, easy to wash, and wipe clean after use. With three stable steel legs. Best suited to be used outdoors where you can hose away any accidental spills of fruit and juice.

Electricity-Free:

Bladder presses use water to produce pressure for natural juice making, winemaking and cheese making. It’s energy-saving and space-saving. If the pressure gets too high, it will be released automatically, making this unit safe and easy to operate.

Important:

Keep the gray bladder out of direct sunlight for storage. A black garbage bag makes an excellent cover that will protect your gear for years to come.
