Apples must be crushed to give pomace (a grated consistency) before pressing. Chopping isn’t enough and liquidising is too much! Vigo’s Crushers will make fast work of the fruit, producing a consistency appropriate for pressing.
Using the hand-operated crushers, halved or quartered apples are dropped into the stainless steel hopper, fall onto the blades, are cut and then crushed by the rollers and hooked blades.
