Autumn is the time to harvest the grapes. From grapes you can make juice for the winter or make wine. And if the juice can be obtained in a juicer, then grapes must be pressed to make wine. If there are few grapes, you can crush it with your hands. And what if the year was fruitful? For this case, the author, homemade, built a press for pressing berries.
Tools and materials:
- Stainless round capacity;
-Boards;
-Plywood;
-Jack;
-Fasteners;
-A circular saw;
- Jigsaw;
-Roulette;
-Hammer;
-Nails;
-Sander;
Step 1: Capacity
At the bottom of the container, around the circumference, with the help of nails and a hammer, the author makes holes. Juice will flow through the holes.
Step 2: Pinch Disc
Cuts a pattern based on the inner diameter of a circle. According to the pattern, cuts out a circle from thick plywood. This circle will play the role of a piston.
Step 3: Frame Making
I calculated the height of the frame. For this, the height of the jack in the state opened by a third was added to the height of the tank.
From the board made a frame. Bolted it together. Added a transverse thrust board. Down established a support.
Press for grapes is ready. Now you can load the berry into the tank, cover with a disc on top and squeeze the juice using a jack. Under the press, you need to install a container for collecting juice.
