Section 4: Operation 4.1 PRESS OPERATION Yield is calculated as a percentage of juice out compared to weigh of produce in. For example, a pressing that started with 10.0 lbs. of apples, and yielded 8.0 lbs. of juice would be an 80% yield. It is important to check yield at least occasionally, it can be a useful tool in determining if pressing should be slowed down, sped up, or altered.
