I always try to press on the full moon. Brings out the werewolf in me.

Hehehe

Hmm.... let me see now..what do I use to press with, well I guess that

depends on what I am pressing. For this, because it is small, I will use

a Slovenian potatoe squishing device which I believe is akin to a ricer.

It is like a garlic press on steroids. Works really well but I have yet

to get the max liquid out of it. I also have a miniture sized apple

press, just like the big ones only this one went through the dryer.

Shrunk it right up. But I haven't had occasion to use this yet as most

of what I have right now is powdered and I don't think it will work too

well in it. This press will work really well for pressing out the whole

herbs though. Course if I could find a bottle jack and some steel I

could weld me up a nice press as I already have the welder. So I guess

for now that is all I have to press with other than my own two hands.

Okay, what are you using to press with?

Peace, love and light,

Don Quai

My pressing method is somewhat more technically complex.

I take an old cotton shirt and cut it up, pour my formula in the shirt (over a

bowl) and squeeze the hell out of it...;) .....

fyi, I need to get something and I just wanted to know what you use...I need to

do some reseach on these and then maybe I could find a used one somewhere....

LOL, I too have been there but I used a sock instead. Hehehe Hey it was

new and unused at the time, 100% cotton. It worked moderately well.

Hi Persian,

A sprout bag is just a simple cloth bag with a pull tie top- nothing

fancy and easy to make.

What I was responding to was that if I were pouring herbs and alcohol

through a fabric I'd want to be sure the fabric was unbleached and

un-dyed clean- without laundry or cleanser residues. The tea shirt may

or may not meet that criteria and it may have simply been the best

option in a pinch.

Cheesecloth works well and can be sewn into a bag that makes it easier.

Are there any asian markets where you are? I have found some great

devices there too. You just want a really fine mesh and untreated if

possible- make sense?

Well whats wrong with it? Guess just colours in the fabric?

I used a cotton tea towel once or twice and now I have some muslin

cloth from the fabric shop, is this OK? This is only a little country and

so far I have never seen or heard of a sprouter bag!
