No you cannot, the orange, lemon and grapefruit are the only fruits that you can press with this machine. I have this machine for almost 2 years and I use it regularly pressing the citrus fruits and it works awesome. I hope this help.

I haven't used it for a large quantity of grapes but it seems to work fine when I toss in a few just for flavor when juicing other things. In general, though, "juicy" fruits tend to leave more juice behind in the pulp that gets discarded. Things like beets and carrots make juice and leave a pretty dry pulp. I think it's generally better to eat fruits and juice veggies. You get the fiber that way and there's no waste.

Sorry No I've only used it with apples and pears. I don't see why it wouldn't work with other fruits as well. good luck..

I find it really easy to use, but it still requires the ability to put pressure on the fruit. I would imagine you can use the weight of your body to press the fruit against the reamer if you place it on a relatively low surface.

I tried doing concord grapes with the tomato screen once and it clogged up like that also. The extra screen kit is great because that doesn't happen. Worth the money for me!

Yes you can, but it's smaller thank average pomegrantes (obviously). I've had mine for over a year and a half and have gotten 1 small fruit from it. p.s. If you want fruit you will have to pollinate it yourself with a qtip or small paint brush.

I haven't tried any of the small seeded berries, but there are instructions in the 'recipe booklet' for steaming them. It should work as long as you don't mash the berries after or while they are cooking. (You aren't supposed to mash any of the fruit while it is in the steam...unless you are intentionally trying to get some of the pulp.)

Yes you can. However this is a terrible product. The oranges and fruit in water ate at the plastic and it looked dirty all the time. After about 2 mo. The plAstic cracked and leaked. I would not recommend it.

Some citrus, definitely! Due to the larger size of the press, lemons and limes, for example, are usually too small. However, it's perfect for oranges and grapefruit.

I think that may be difficult. The stirring mechanism does not look to be made for heavy items. Could be wrong though. Maybe if fruit was diced up fine .... may take a little more cooking.. just have to experiment. I can't say for sure, I never tried that... Good luck though..

From what I read on this, it is for lemons, oranges and grapefruit. It would need to be a fruit you could hold over the cone and press.

I only tried it with lemons, but should work. Even with lemons you are advised to press the sides of the fruit gently against the reamer to extract all the juice. If the grapefruit is too big, more effort to do this, but certainly less than doing it by hand.

Probable not. If they are that small you are likely better to use a lemon on lime press. This machine is best for oranges down to lemons.

No clue on that. I know we have tried it on most citrus based fruits with no issues, but keep in mind its a press, it just exerts pressure down on the fruit to squeeze out the juice.

I honestly wouldn't recommend this product or juicing pomegranates, the valve that the juice run through while being pressed has a point tip and more then like it will just pierce the fruit rather then juice ...I honestly don't know how you juice a pomegranate because the juice come from the seed I would probably just google or go on YouTube and type in "How to extract juice from a pomegranate.

Marilyn, I think you can do so; I usually follow the recipes in the insert and if you go online Pomona has many other recipe variations. I also experiment on my own; last year I made a mixture of blueberries and rhubarb, it was fantastic!! I also used the Pomona Pectin to make pineapple jam. I was leaving for a 10 day trip and had this ripe pineapple which I could not use before leaving; hence, turned it into jam! It was wonderful. I use the Pomona Pectin because it is natural with no preservatives.

It has a very powerful motor so hand strength is required to both press the fruit down onto the spindle as well as to keep the fruit from just spinning with the spindle rather than being juiced. You would probably be better off with the Chef's Star Stainless Steel Electric Juicer with Citrus Press. http://www.amazon.com/Chefs-Stainless-Electric-Juicer-Citrus/dp/B00FRL9JYU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1391294595&sr=8-3&keywords=chef+star+electric+juicer
