A firm favourite with families, Apple Days and community groups alike! The crossbeam makes all the difference; it swings away from the press so that you can crush your fruit directly into the basket and empty your used pulp really easily. Put the Classic Crusher A on top, grab a willing friend to help and it’s very efficient, easily producing up to 13.5 litres (3 gallons) an hour. Using only the very best materials; cast iron for the base plate, legs, spindle nut and crossbeam, sustainable beech for the basket and stainless steel for the handle, this press should last a lifetime. Use with a straining bag. The press basket has holds 11 kg (24 lbs) of crushed fruit Press apples and any soft seeded fruit like grapes, pears, raspberries, strawberries and more

his all stainless steel electric apple mill makes short work of milling apples and pears, which are fed steadily into the hopper by hand. It produces a fine fruit pulp ideal for pressing.

• 1.5kW/2 hp motor
• All contact and structural parts are made from industrial grade AISI 304 stainless steel to ensure easy cleaning and a long, corrosion-free life
• Supplied with a 6 metre length, insulated cable and moulded UK plug
