# Below the actual press, there is an empty space meant for a container to collect the juice dripping down. Only buckets or jugs can be used as possible containers, neither barrels nor bowls will serve the same purpose. At the moment, jugs can be placed below the press but have no visual representation.<br>

# The middle part of the fruit press holds the fruit mesh that's meant to be pressed. {{Using|Interacting}} with this section with at least 4 fruits of one type in hand will deposit them into the fruit press in the form of fruit mesh. Once converted into mesh, fruits cannot be taken back. Trying to take them out of the press again will result in fruit mesh items taken out instead.

# At the top of the fruit press is the screw. After placing enough fruits into the press - at least 16 and at maximum 32 - this screw can be fastened by holding right mouse button on it and will then press down to squeeze the mesh.

When working with a full fruit press filled with 32 fruits equalling 8 pieces of fruit mesh, squeezing out the juice with a fully wound screw will actually show the process in the tooltip of the fruit press. When pressing less then a full 8 layers of fruit mesh, the tooltip will at the moment only show up once the screw is released - this will not interrupt the juicing process.<br>

To make the best out of the available fruit, it is recommended to calculate the available space against the number of required fruits. One bucket can hold 10L worth of juice, whereas one jug can only hold 3L worth. It is possible to process 20 fruit and catch the juice with 2 jugs with minimal losses, however given the fact that a player able to build a fruit press should be able to craft buckets as well, it is recommended to use those instead to minimize juice loss.

When inputting fruit into the press it results in fruit mesh - this holds true both before and after pressing, however the amount of mesh will reduce after squeezing out juice. Apart from its usage in producing juice, this mesh can only be used as fodder for pigs.<br>
When inputting fruit into the press it results in fruit mash - this holds true both before and after pressing, however the amount of mash will reduce after squeezing out juice. Apart from its usage in producing juice, this mash can only be used as fodder for pigs.<br>
Fruit mesh can be placed in a large trough, with 2 mesh turning into 1 portion of feed.
Fruit mash can be placed in a large trough, with 2 mash turning into 1 portion of feed.
