After my elderberry bush went off it's tits this year production wise I went "I'm not fuckin hand squeezing all that" because LOOK at this gotdamned six gallon bucket of cooked berries.
So I leveled up my wine hobby and got a fruit press. I am delighted to report that the design of them is pretty much the same as it's always been and I feel so fancy and legit and dare I say, cottage core. Look at that COLOR 🤌🏻🤌🏻
I love doing stuff that I feel like an ancestor from thousands of years ago could peep in and be like "a lot of this stuff is unfamiliar and new BUT I recognize what you're doing!!"
#gorgeous color but its not a dye at all it rinsed right out of my mesh bags. which is good but also. dang.#anyway i now have over five damned gallons of juice downstairs#i had to water it down a bit bc the shit was THICK and still thicker than the batch i made a couple years ago#and that ended up a damn good wine after aging two years so I am STOKED#christening my new fruit press with the mostly intensely staining shit
