Seen a couple in the online HBS's.
I don't think I need a particularly large one i.e. 3 to 5 kilo's looks about right.
The one that I'm thinking of is made of Ali'/Stainless, it's just over £100 (the local HBS looks too expensive).
I have seen one online advertised at just below the £50 mark, made of stainless and "painted metal" (presume that thats normal steel) that will press about 1.4 kg of fruit. I don't suppose that that matters too much if I need to press about the 4lb/2kg mark of fruit per gallon of wine - I intend to "crush" the fruit with a food processor and then put the pulp into a pressing/straining bag anyway.
Is there anything wrong with this idea and any particular burning reason why I might need the larger and dearer Ali/Stainless model over the smaller, cheaper model ?
