fruit press
We'd like to buy a stainless steel fruit press - about 5.5 litre/ 1 gallon capacity - to tackle our grapes, pears and apples, among other fruits. I know I can get one from www.wineworks.co.uk but as they are imported there from Italy, I was wondering if anyone has ever seen any on sale in France (esp near here, but not necessarily, if there is a website). Any ideas?

Two shops might have something like this. Check with Pole Vert in Elne. They seem to have a large selection of various things.
Gamm Vert in Argeles used to have something like you're trying to find. There's still a Gamm Vert in the Ceret and I think they have a shop in the St. Martin part of Perpignan.
I'm not sure but check with Ecotel, where they sell hotel/restaurant equipment. I'm not sure of the address but it's near to the Clinic St.Pierre.

Ecotel is near Metro - pass in front of Metro, turn left at the mini roundabout and it's just down there on your right. I think you have to have a trade card there as you do for Metro.
Gamm Vert in Ceret is on the industrial estate near Intermarche. BD's right - they have a lot of that type of stuff.

Thanks for the help. We do actually have one which we bought at Gamm Vert Argeles (for a load of dosh), but it's the traditional sort in red steel with slats of wood all round it and a spindle through it. To be honest, it doesn't really do the job. The one I'm after is a stainless and aluminium version, still with a central spindle, but much more effective, although I believe you still have to pulp the fruit first, especially hard fruits like apples and pears. I'll go to Gamm Vert in Ceret and have a look, before trying in Perpignan. Thanks again.

Metro needs the card but Ecotel is open for purchasing. They're not cheap but their products have good quality. I think you would find stainless steel equipment, if they have the presses.thumbelina wrote:Ecotel is near Metro - pass in front of Metro, turn left at the mini roundabout and it's just down there on your right.

How big is your wooden one? I might be interested in buying it off you.
