Food Mill- there are many. I do about 300 to 500 pounds of tomatoes every year.

Thirty pounds of tomatoes were processed into eleven liters of tomato juice.The jars were pressure canned at 15 PSI for 15 minutes for preservation. The only addition to the pot was one liter of water to facilitate cooking. Annotated pictures depict the process.

Eighty pounds of tomatoes were picked and 40 pounds was made into 23 liters of tomato juice. Two liters of water was added to each pot for cooking and to thin for drinking.Two batches were made and the remained 40 pounds will be processed later. The residue from the food processed straining was put through a Champion Juicer and saved for a nice thick tomato soup.The liter jars were pressure canned in seven liter batches at 15 PSI for 15 minutes for long term storage at room temperature. Annotated pictures depict the process.
