Hydraulic Grape Press - 80 cm Basket

The hydraulic grape press is a machine designed for medium and large wine producers who process significant quantities of grapes and want to obtain superior quality wine. The hydraulic press uses an oil-hydraulic system and exploits Pascal’s principle, according to which the pressure applied at any point of a confined liquid is transmitted with the same intensity throughout the container.

The advantages of using a hydraulic grape press

As already mentioned, the use of a hydraulic press is ideal for producers who make quality wine. The machine ensures gentle treatment of the grapes, with adjustable pressure to avoid breaking down the cells of the raw material and to prevent the formation of lees.

The hydraulic press has been designed for wineries that produce quality wines and therefore require excellent pressing performance in order to process both white grapes and red grape marc in the best possible way.

The hydraulic press: a professional product that is easy to use

In addition to excellent processing results, the hydraulic press is very easy to use thanks to the practical control panel, requiring minimal effort from the operator, also thanks to the removable trolleys fitted with braked wheels. The frame, also mounted on wheels, ensures the mobility of the hydraulic press, which also allows a single processing cycle thanks to the stainless steel must collection basin, speeding up work.

The ease of cleaning operations is also an important advantage.
