Default Muscadine Second-Run

A friend of mine has a small vineyard of (mostly) muscadine vines, and last
year he convinced me to try making a batch of wine with about 25 lbs of
grapes he gathered. I followed Jack Keller's recipe, but since I don't
have a press we resorted to alternative (and much less efficient) methods of
pressing the grapes, after which the pulp was discarded.

Last year's wine turned out pretty good, and he wants to do it again this
year. I still don't have a press (and can't justify buying one for this,
and there's apparently nothing available around here for rental). I've been
wondering about trying a second-run with the muscadine pulp, but I don't
have a clue as to how to run the batch. Can someone provide a guide or
direct me to some good reference?

Thanks,

Bart
