Pull up the tomato plant from the ground and hang upside down indoors. We put ours in the garage since we don't mind having the cars out for a bit.

So maybe you need to bring them in sooner. Look it up on the web. I read that once a tomatoe reachs 54.7 degrees it will stop ripening. So maybe you need to bring them in sooner.

That's the whole point of the press!To remove the skins and the seeds. I learned to make tomato sauce from my Italian in-laws when I visited them in Italy, and they put the tomatoes in with the skins on. Also, I have a lot of success ripening green tomatoes in brown paper bags. I just put them all in a paper bag (pick a size depending on how many tomatoes you have) and they ripen fairly quickly. I don't have much trouble with them rotting that way. I have a somewhat similar tomato press (except it’s, gulp, made of plastic), and I always put the tomatoes in with the skins on.

I can be a drama queen sometimes...okay, alot of the time. I never tried it with the skins because Paul told me to take it off before I put it in the press. Freezing the tomatoes and then letting them defrost makes it so easy to take off the skins. Has anyone tried putting the tomato in with the skin in a press? Anna The clean-up is not the bad.
