Default Pressing

This fall, due to spouse induced space
restrictions, I am fermenting about 25 5-gallon
buckets of Cabernet Sauvignon. (I did not know
this last year, but appearently we have a
standing "no-barrel" policy in my house)



I feel your pain. Luckily I have two barrels in
the house (basement) but the standing order here
is - no dog in the house.



I am thinking about Pressing

Would it be better to:

Press each bucket's cap individually,draining
back into the original bucket?
(More time consuming)

Collect up all the caps, and press as one
evenly divide up the resulting juice back into
each individual bucket. (less time consuming)

thanks. -Wayne
