labor saver
this is a wonderful product. for years we cooked fruit and cheese cloth extracted the juice, getting much more pulp than needed. the steam cooker steams the clear pure juice, if you want pulp just stir while in the extraction mode. you get much more juice than an old traditional method, little preparation, and very fast. if you are a jelly, jam, preserve maker of just about any fruit this is a labor saver , like nobody's business. great buy, in a long time.

Outstanding Performance
I made this purchase off from a suggestion from a colleague that has been using one for years. My initial need was to make hard cider and I did not have access to a cider press and the stuff you buy in the store is loaded with preservative. In less than an hour I was able to turn 2 pecks of apples into juice and I ran the pulp through a food mill to make apple sauce for my self and my 7 month old baby. Very little prep is needed, just wash your produce and if it is large cut it in half or quarters and toss it in the basket. The juice from the unit rivaled that of freshly pressed and it is already pasturized. I can't wait to try it out on other seasonal produce. I plan on purchasing 2 more for my mother and brother that make wine. I brew beer and will use it for adjunts to my seasonal ales.

Steam Cooker makes my fall work easier!
I was very happy to have received this steam cooker! I had many grapes that I wanted to juice and the product worked very well. I also tried apples and was not quite a happy with the end product. I look forward to using this product next summer with currants, and other berries. You do have to be very careful because the juice is extremely hot and I needed to get some special gloves to hold the jars while I was working. If you have a garden, or just like to make your own basic food, you will be pleased with this product.
