Default Anyone use this instead of a press for small batches

All,

I'm full of questions today, so be gentle....

Has anyone tried this for fruits/berries/grapes?

Meat grinder (required for above item)
http://www.shopkitchenaid.com/produc...art&T1=KTA+FGA

It is just a juice /pulp extractor for a standard Kitchen Aid mixer.
I was at the mall, "gadgets&more" had one of these, and I got to
thinking... It gives me an additional incentive to buy the meat
grinder

I do small batches only 1, 3, and 5 gallon. I have a huge apple
resource, and have plenty of Elderberry nearby, and access to
concorde, and possibly Niagara and other grape varieties.

The only disadvantage I see is that it will possibly remove the skins
of grapes, thus ruining my chance of making reds this way

As always, I appreciate the responses!

Happy winemaking,
Greg, Erie, PA
