Has anyone attempted to squeeze a grain bag with a cider press? The most laborious portion of my brew day is squeezing the bag. If it can work, using a press seems much more efficient. Thanks.
squeezing will NOT allow tannins into wort TEMP will..........let it begin.....
You really do not want to squeeze thebag out at all, just sit it in a strainer over a bowl. Squeezing the bag can relase tanins into your wort causing off flavors. Iave never tested the theory, I just don't do it from what I have read.
