Abstract
A grape dejuicer comprises a closed tank provided with a dejuicer grid and a membrane in the tank which is pressurized to force juice out of the harvested grapes through the grid. Conveyor means in the tank remove the dejuicer grapes from the tank. Harvested grapes are placed in said tank and the juice is allowed to flow naturally. The membrane is then pressurized to force out further juice through the grid. The membrane is then depressurized and the tank is emptied by actuating the conveyor means.
