BLADDER PRESS: This is what I use at Bushwhacker, and I’ve been really pleased with it. The bladder press is made with high-grade steel, and the idea is simple. The press contains a rubber bladder in the middle. You fill up the press with pomace while the bladder is empty. After you put the pomace into the press, you slowly start filling the bladder up with water. As the bladder fills, it presses against the pomace and juice comes flowing out.

Mine is on wheels and takes up very little space in my production area. The downside is that they’re pretty spendy, and once the bladder fills, you need to dump all the water out between presses. I haven’t come up with a clever way to reuse that water.

They do have smaller versions than mine (and much much bigger ones) that rely on filling the bladder with air instead of water. I haven’t tried one, but for a home user they may be a great option.
