Can I Change The Capacity Of My Filter Press?

September 12, 2018

Yes. The maximum capacity depends on the length of the platform. The short platform will hold up to 10 filters. The long platform will hold up to 20 filters. Expansion kits include the 7″ stainless steel plates and longer compression rods.

You are also able to decrease the capacity by inserting a piece of sheet metal between a window plate and a waffle plate to block the manifolds. This way, the syrup is not allowed to travel beyond the stainless steel sheet. The book end plates should never be removed.
