Blichmann WineEasy (or similar)
« on: September 02, 2015, 10:24:15 am »
Hi All,
I've been doing fruit meads and some fruit-added beers/wheats for years now.  And it's always a nightmare to deal with the contents of the fermenter when there are pits/seeds/skins/etc. in there.  Not to mention pumpkin mash LOL.

I've eyeing the Blichmann "WineEasy" setup where it basically uses a vacuum pump and a kettle that they altered to turn into a vacuum press.  Has anyone had experiences with them yet?  Or any similar setups by other makers?  I'm thinking I could transfer my 5+ year old cherry mead that still has all the fruit in it, and use something like the WineEasy to press out the goodness in a somewhat sterile fashion.  Thoughts?

Thanks,
G.
