Guest guest Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 I decided to get really serious about properly pressing my herbal oils and tinctures, but I am now floored by the prices of the presses. I've checked Ebay and google, and it seems to me, that although they're simple devices, they are outlandishly priced. I've checked both 'fruit and wine' presses, which seem to be wooden slat buckets with a press mechanism inside. I believe some are semi-hydraulic, which is nice, but even the rattiest little ones are $100+, even on Ebay! A herb-oriented company has imports from Italy, stainless stell and plastic, and the tiny 5 " cup version is over $100. What is up with these prices? Anybody know any better sources? I wish I could build one, it only seems to be made up of inexpensive parts that could be cobbled together. http://member.newsguy.com/~herblady Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
