The Time Will Come for Many Wineries When Handling Destemmed Grapes with Bins and a Forklift Is Just Too Much to Do.

When a winery is under a certain number of cases or tons, using gravity and elbow grease can get the job done well enough. If moving must is something you would like to do with the help of some automation, please consider this:

Carlsen & Associates Must Pumping System
Enotools is your service and sales agency for the Carlsen Must Pumping System.

Since 2004, Enotools has been advising all customers to delay purchase of a must pumping system until the opportunity to buy a really, really good must pumping system arises. The logic is simple. Why waste money on something that hurts the quality of the wine and does only one job?

Why not buy a system which is comparable in price to others out there, but multi- purpose on one hand- and BETTER for this purpose than any other?

Our must pumping system is comprised of two critical components for gentle, yet efficient and capable must transfer:
1. The "do all" Waukesha 130.
2. The Carlsen Must Sump.

About the Waukesha 130:
Wow.
This 3" inlet/ outlet pump starts with a Waukesha Positive Displacement Pump Head. The spinny- things we call rotors are not "lobes" like in an imitation.
This is a Waukesha.

This pump can earn its keep year 'round in the winery doing transfers, bottling, filtration (not D.E.), racking, pumpovers, etc. while other must pumps enjoy the shade under the destemmer after harvest.

Note the model pictured above is well balanced on the domestically manufactured cart complete with on- board variable speed drive and remote control.

The Carlsen Must Sump:

Made at Carlsen, this little beauty is coupled to the Waukesha 130 to make your must pumping dreams come true. At 1/3 the cost of the Waukesha, this is where the value in our system really comes through. Other must pumping systems are one piece, one purpose.

The conspicuously high quality construction of this unit does nothing to conceal the fact it moves grapes and juice unharmed. It's job is to present the grapes to the column of vacuum created by the suction of the Waukesha. This sump merely presents the fruit to the pump; Which is always running just slightly faster than the sump.

Enjoy the piece of mind that comes from owning the best.

The only thing gentler than this when moving must is a bucket.

Harvest will be here before you know it.
