Destemming and Crushing
Destemming and crushing are among the most important steps in grape processing. They are closely connected operations that have a direct impact on the quality of the final wine. SRAML destemmers are designed to meet the needs of modern winemakers who expect gentle handling of grapes, reliable performance, and consistent results.
Destemming and crushing equipment
Destemmers and crushers are essential parts of winery equipment. Their main role is to separate grape berries from the stems and prepare the must for the next stages of production by releasing the juice and pulp.
The new generation of SRAML destemmers has been developed in close cooperation with winemakers and built to support premium wine production. Every detail is designed for efficient, gentle, and adaptable processing.
Key advantages include:
Destemming grapes at a winemaker
The polyethylene cage is one of the key features of the new line. It allows thorough yet delicate separation of berries from stems without damaging skins or seeds, helping preserve grape quality throughout the process.
Winemakers can adapt the destemmer to different grape varieties and ripeness levels by adjusting the rotation speed and selecting baskets with different hole sizes. This ensures efficient destemming while minimizing damage to the berries and avoiding stem breakage.
