Vacuum Pump Seal Kit (4 o-rings)

The WineEasy Vacuum Pump Press Kit along with the WineEasy Piston Kit will press your wine inside the fermenter. After initial fermentation the free run is drained or pumped out of the fermenter. The sliding piston assembly is then installed. The vacuum pump evacuates the carboy (or other vacuum capable vessel) and applies a vacuum under the false bottom of the WineEasy Fermenter. This causes atmospheric pressure to push down on the sliding piston pressing the pomace to the ideal maximum pressure of 14 PSI to avoid hard press conditions.

Since all this is done without transferring the pomace to a press and is done so in a completely closed and air tight system oxidation and contamination are virtually eliminated.

Cleanup is as easy as scooping out the dry pomace into a container and washing out the high polish stainless steel fermenter.
