  • KegLand Stainless Steel Bladder Press - 40L KegLand Stainless Steel Bladder Press - 40L

    KegLand Fruit Press | Wine Press | Hydro Press | Stainless Steel | 40L

    This 40 Liter Hydropress provides a simple, highly effective method of extracting juice from apples, pears, berries or grapes for juice, wine or cider making. It can also be used as a cheese press or for honeycomb. Primarily targeted at the Apple Mead and Cider makers, as this press is hard to beat on a budget. Make the best possible sparkling cider with the Electric Apple Grinder and 40L Hydropress. 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. Features: ​​​​​​​40L capacity Rubber membrane is made of high-quality natural rubber Food grade stainless steel perforated basket Press bag included Make grapes, apple, pears, cherries, tomatoes, berries, or other soft fruit into juice, cider or wine Made of food grade 304 Stainless Steel Easy to dismantle and clean 1/2" BSP Female water inlet KegLand Part Number: KL23313

    Speidel Fruit Press | Wine Press | German Made | Stainless Steel | 20L

    Expertly crafted stainless steel fruit press made by the original manufacturer of the bladder press Features a slotted screen which mirrors commercial press designs Higher juice yield (65-70%) compared to other press models Can be used with any domestic water supply that provides at least 36 psi of pressure Easy to clean after use—simply spray down with a hose and towel dry Made in Germany by Speidel Speidel was the original manufacturer of the bladder press. While similar to the Italian models in operation, Speidel offers a few quality upgrades. To obtain a better press Speidel uses a slotted screen, similar to what is offered on large commercial presses, instead of a screen with circular perforations. Speidel presses also offer superior hardware and a recessed valve assembly (to reduce accidental breakage). Compared to other presses, the Speidel hydro press has a higher juice yield (~65-70%) and works completely without electricity and with minimal effort. This press can be used with any domestic water supply the provides at least 2.5 bar (36 psi) of pressure. Pressing pressure and pressing time is simply regulated by the water flow. These units are extremely easy to care for and can be cleaned quickly by simply spraying it down with a hose after use. You will find the quality you'd expect from a product that is 100% German-made. Speidel has been shifting their bladder presses from painted to all stainless, and we're pretty excited about it. Although the orange painted versions have their own aesthetic appeal, nothing beats the performance and practicality of stainless steel. Stainless is much easier to clean and much more resistant to rust. The painted versions are likely to chip over time through normal wear and tear, creating small crevasses for bacteria to call home. No such worries when working this beautiful, brushed stainless press. Overall height is 33" and outlet height is 12". A press cycle for this unit averages around 35 minutes. Includes: Complete press assembly Inner mesh bag (to keep fruit from getting in the stainless basket and make cleanup easier) Plastic "spray-protection bag" to keep juice from squirting out Fittings to connect garden hose Instruction manual Presses ship in a corrugated box. Minor assembly (attaching legs) is required before use 1 Year Warranty on all parts! FAQ: Can the press be operated with air pressure? No. These are hydraulic presses that may only be operated with water. When operating with compressed air, there is a risk of explosion and a very high risk of injury if the membrane bursts due to excess pressure or damage. Is a minimum water pressure required? In order to ensure the function and the best possible yield, there should be a minimum water pressure of 2-2.5 bar on the press. What if the water supply delivers more than 3 bar? In principle, this is not a problem, as if the water pressure inside the press exceeds 3 bar, the pressure relief valve opens and there is no pressure-related damage. How many apples make how much juice? On average, 50kg (110 lbs) of apples produce around 30-35L (8-9 gal) of juice, depending on the variety and quality of the apples.

Frequently Asked Questions

Wine Bladder Press Collection Article +

Using Your Bladder Press Download print friendly version Note: This manual applies to use of both our Italian and German made bladder presses. While there are slight physical differences between the two model series, the operation of both is nearly identical. Setting-up the Press: Attach garden hose to water inlet. In order to make this step as easy as possible MoreWine! provides an adaptor assembly allowing you to connect your garden hose directly to the press without having to purchase extra hardware parts. Depending on your model, this adaptor assembly may or not may not be assembled in place prior to shipment. If you have purchased a bladder press from another supplier we do sell this assembly separately. We recommend that you sanitize the press prior to use. Wet the basket, bladder, collection tray, inner mesh bag, and outer plastic bag with your favorite sanitizer. We recommend using Star San, a clear no-rinse sanitizer with a 1-2 minute contact time. The mesh bag (green or white depending on brand) that comes with every bladder press is designed to be placed inside the stainless basket. Fold the mesh bag over the top of the stainless basket to hold in place. This mesh bag helps with the press and makes cleaning out the pomace (pressed grapes) much easier. Filling the Press: Fill up the stainless basket with must. You can use a bucket or a must pump. We suggest you fill the basket to the very top and then allow a little time for setlling once the basket is full. Top up once or twice with must after settling occurs. Place the lid onto the top of the press, (it should settle down snugly into the top of the press with a satisfying “thunk”). Screw down the large threaded wing nut (made from molded black plastic on the Italian models and stainless steel and brass on the Speidel models.) Put the plastic or rubber mesh spatter-protector over the outside of the press so that it covers the entire perforated area of the press. This bag keeps wine from being sprayed out during the pressing cycle. Pressing: At the top of the bladder press is a small screw valve. You must unscrew it (counter-clock wise) before you fill the bladder. This opens the valve and allows the air to escape while the bladder fills with water. Open the valve on the “input” side of the manifold (the side attached to the garden hose). Water will now begin to flow into the bladder. You should hear a hissing from the top of the press where the air is escaping from the small screw-valve. When water begins to spurt out of the screw valve, signaling all the air has been purged from the bladder, close by tightening clockwise. The best way to determine the end point of when to stop pressing is by taste. With a little practice and an overall idea of what you are trying to achieve with your wine you can determine when to stop pressing. With red wines, you can generally taste the wine become more astrigent as higher levels of tannins are pulled from the skins. Some wines need to be pressed a little more than others. Sometimes towards the end of pressing we taste a good amount of complexity and fruit that we like. It really depends on your wine and your tastes. However to give you some initial guidelines we can tell you that most commercial wineries will press from 1.5 to 2 bar (14 to 28 p.s.i.) We generally press to around 2 bar, give or take. There is an automatic blow-off on all models that will not allow the pressure in the bladder to be greater than 2.5 to 3 bar. This is an important safety feature to protect your bladder. Emptying the Press: When you reach the end point, turn off the water and disconnect the hose from the press. The bladder will be completely expanded inside the press and you will need to then let the water out so that it can deflate back to its starting size. This is done by opening both the output and the input valves to allow water to drain as quickly as possible from the bladder. If you will be continuing to use the press after the first load of must has been finished do not open the screw-valve at the top of the press, as this will only allow air into the bladder. We want the bladder to contract as much as possible so that you can fit more grapes/must in per load. Note: if you wish to recapture the water for a planter bed or other purpose you can use only the output valve with a hose attached. Once the bladder has shrunken to an acceptable size, or the water has stopped draining out, turn both valves to the off position. After the bladder is empty, unscrew the wing nut counterclockwise on top of the lid and remove. In all cases you will want to remove and rinse off the inner mesh bag. We suggest hanging it with clamps and rinsing with a highpressure hose nozzle. To learn how to handle the stainless basket, note the size of your press, and read the applicable option below. 40L to 90L models: Release stainless clips that hold the basket to the basin. Remove basket and mesh bag. Clean, and replace. 160L to 300L Rotating models: Rotate the basket and slide out the mesh bag. It is your option to remove the stainless basket or to clean it in place. If you clean in place, remove as much skins and seeds as possible, but there is no need to spend the time to clean it to ‘perfect’, as a few skins in the next press will not affect the flavor. Repeat the Process! For more questions please see the product descriptions online which have additional information related to your exact model.
