Homemade Grape Crusher

Monday, February 13, 2012 by Customer Stories

I discovered this grape crusher on line two years ago and fabricated my own version. I can crush 5 gallons of grapes in 2-3 minutes using my drill. Check out the last image which is a video of Steve's unit.

I left off the de-stemming tray and just set the crusher right on a 6 gallon plastic bucket.

I encourage all with a few simple woodworking skills to study the photos and make their own. Very inexpensive and superior to any manual (i.e. foot crushing) process.
