I love this machine that siphons the wine into a smaller bottle. It’s a much easier way than siphoning it the old way.

Just out of curiosity what’s the purpose for pressing it?
your absolutely correct. Pressing the salami is what makes a soppressata . A lot of times people don’t realize when using blocks, pails of water doesn’t give equal weight press. The bolt, board method and the car jack method gives me no air pockets.It’s a reliable way to get any air pockets out. Especially before there was more advanced equipment. Any salame requires that you remove as much air as you can. it’s also a very distinctive Calabrese shape![]()
That's a brilliant design. Like you I've seen so many ways of doing this. I think I showed you my ratchet straps and chaffing dish tray method. The scissor jack is the best because it's fast and collapses way lower than a bottle jack.your absolutely correct. Pressing the salami is what makes a soppressata .
