2016 Syrah
Winemaking 2016: 200 pounds of Syrah through the press, resulting in just under 3 5-gallon carboys of "new wine". We really like this press: with no central screw going down through the middle of the grapes, it only takes one mesh bag. No futzing to get the balance right, half as much cleanup.

Is this a rental crusher/press, or a home-made one. Because it's cool.
It belongs to a friend who uses it for apples. He bought it as a broken-down wreck for $60, salvaged the metal parts - the screw is maybe 2" diameter - and built a new hardwood frame for it. He does great work! It's a joy to use.
