Would this press extract juice from Currants? I have about 50 lbs of red currants that I'd like to press to make wine.

The press to me is useless; (read my review).However, currents are somewhat easy to juice, so this may work for you; I would rather find some other method.

Most likely, I have used it for doing herbal extractions which is cut herbs with apple cider vinegar added and steeping for 2 weeks. The liquid and herbal properties are pressed out and the left over mulch is discarded.

I'm sorry I don't have an answer for that. I use it to squeeze butter out of herbs after I cook it.

Yes Ithink it would do the job I've used it successfully with grapesCheers Lily

Sunny: Here is my thinking on the top squeezer. It will make pressing down easier, but is not as efficient as the hand in juice extraction. The top can only press downward and does not accommodate all sizes of oranges and grapefruits. The hand will squeeze and ocilate, making it more efficient in extracting all the juice. If you get the top, please let me know if you find my thinking to bre true.Thanks,Ian

hi there.. I didn't do any juicing of blackberries but I believe it will work...I did the concord grapes which are seeded and I had no seeds in my juice. thanks. but I did do blackberries in a juice quite similar about 6 years ago and I had no problem with the seeds...I had also did raspberries that year as well .....with amazing results

Yes absolutely. I however use my hands to hold the fruit, not the press that is attached to the unit. It works much better that way. Its a great little unit.

To be honest, and I LOVE my Breville, if you are looking to extract all the juice in greens, you would be better with a "green juicer", which presses the greens to extract the juice. The centrifugal force juicers really don't work well with wheat grass and greens. OR you can juice your fruits and veggies, and place the greens in a Vitamix and then add them with the pulp!!

Yes.. I have an orange tree and a couple of Lemon tree's that make lemons that are larger than normal.. This orange version of the press works great. Especially if you put the slices in upside down. (cut the lemon in half, put the flat part facing down into the cup) You will get more juice out and end up with a rind that is inside-out. also be sure to throw some of those rinds in the garbage disposal with Ice, cleans it up and makes it smell good.

YES! We just pressed two paper bags full of lemons in December. Filled empty water bottles with the juice and stuck them into the freezer. We love this press. Hubby and I picked close to 200 pomegranates from our two tress late summer/early fall and pressed 90% of them. Enjoyed drinking fresh, making jelly and froze the rest of the juice.

I do not see why it would not work. Rebecaa Sue in her comment got it right as to how to use it. I use mine for wine making besides jelly and I love it! You will love it too. Chuck.

That depends on the veggies you are using. I have used almost every veggie and fruit you can think of and haven't run into any issues, so it is really as fast as you can put the veggies in, it will crank out juice and pulp. The machine will also juice the pulp again from the first go around to get even more out of the remains!

No clue on that. I know we have tried it on most citrus based fruits with no issues, but keep in mind its a press, it just exerts pressure down on the fruit to squeeze out the juice.

No, I cannot get all the juice out of a lemon using this; however, I do like the ease of use and the juice I do get....to get all the juice out of a lemon you would need to use a lemon press.

Absolutely. We just made a batch this fall using the equipment from this kit and it turned out great. Your local homebrew supply shop should be able to set you up with the apple pressing, yeast, yeast nutrients, and sodium bisulfite. Other than those things, everything you need to make cider will be included in this kit.

I do not recommend using this juice press for grinding. It is designed for pressing juice from vegetation. Actually it is good specifically for wheat grass.

A few smallish grapefruits would probably be OK, but you're going to have to work (squeezing the fruit around the juicer core). If you're doing a lot, you'll be happier with something else.

I wish i could tell you Tree. I haven't tried it yet. I use it as a strainer for my green juicing. Sorry. I do plan on trying it sometime tho. If i try it i will let you know! Good luck.

Hi Charisse, I believe it can. I have not done it but my recommendation would be to cut the fruit (with skin on) into one inch pieces and feed it gradually to see. If it doesn't work, you can use the back button to remove the fruit from the small end of the auger. Let me know if it works without taxing the engine! :) (remember, I'm not a technician, just a fellow juicer like you, so follow your gut instinct!)

That's a good question. If you were making red you would need everything this keeps out. For white you would only need the juice so this might work, you might need to strain it first but it would probably take forever.
