We decided to sign up for this month's Unified Wine and Grape Symposium to be held in Sacramento on January 24-26. Now that we are getting serious about buying equipment, attending this meeting will be our chance to meet and get to know people that we may be working with in the future.
When I took the Wine Production UC Davis course, one of the first lessons included some information on how to select equipment. I revisited the guidelines for selecting a crusher and this might be applicable for the rest of the equipment that we intend to purchase.
Ease of Inspection / Cleaning
Quality of Must
Rate of Feed vs. Winery Capacity
Dependability
Overbuilt
Compatibility with Other Equipment
Is Adjustment Possible While Running?
Service
Portability1
