Anyone else engaged in this rewarding and time consuming pastime? I just finished this season’s batch last night.
My wife really likes pomegranate juice; to the point I purchased a press for her several years ago. I researched the presses, buying a steel one that resembles a bottle capper. Wife and I have a deal, she washes them and I press the juice out. We freeze twelve jars a year & consume one each month.
I’ve found rolling the whole fruit on a hard surface (as you’d do with a lemon) increases the yield some. No matter, there’s always some berries in each fruit that don’t get squeezed. Much as I enjoy the juice, nibbling on the left over berries to extract the remaining juice isn’t worth the effort to me.
Has anyone found an easier method ? I think if the anvil on our press was more of a mirror image of the press cone it wound be more effective.
Unfortunately I can’t get a photo to upload now.
