Seb's dimensions work for me. volume = 3.1417 x Radius ² x D (height in
this case) This number has to be converted to liquid measure. (1 cubic
foot = 7.47 gallons) ....

I get about 6.7 gallons (25L) if it was filled to the top with grapes and if
there were no solids left over.
I have the next higher press and I typically get 62L per pressing.
