Elevator-Grinder for Larger LANCMAN Water Presses

Especially Recommended for the VSPI-X170 & VSPI-X250

This new elevator-grinder combination is designed for use with the larger LANCMAN presses -- specifically, the VSPI-X170 and the VSPI-X250. The combination elevator-grinder pays for itself in several ways:

• Reduces the physical effort needed to supply 10 or more bushels of ground fruit to the press
• Makes it practical to add a second water press to your cider operation -- while you are pressing with one unit, you can be filling another unit.

For the most efficient production, we recommend adding a brusher-washer unit to feed clean apples to the hopper on the elevator-grinder. While it is possible to wash your apples by hand in a tub, you will find that this slows your production considerably. If you are considering an elevator-grinder to boost production, you should also consider a brusher-washer.
