6CMJY-50QB stainless steel custom base matcha green stone mill, natural granite stone plate, low-speed cold grinding. Preserve tea aroma, produce ultra-fine matcha powder. Stainless steel frame with casters, suitable for tea shops, labs and small-batch matcha production.
Custom heightened small matcha stone mill DL-6CYMJ-32M, equipped with 30cm natural stone plates. Low-speed low-temperature grinding, produce ultra-fine matcha powder ≤15μm. 50g/h capacity, stainless steel body, ideal for boutique tea shops & small-batch matcha production.
Manual Matcha Stone Mill is a traditional hand-operated grinder made from natural stone, designed for producing fresh and authentic matcha powder. With a slow grinding process and low heat generation, it helps preserve the natural color, aroma, and flavor of tea leaves. Compact and durable, it is ideal for matcha cafes, tea houses, restaurants, cultural experience shops, and small-batch matcha production.
This 5-station horizontal pouch packing machine handles M bags, flat pouches and zipper pouches for 50–500g granular materials like tea. It automatically finishes weighing, filling, vacuuming and sealing with servo control, supporting multiple optional accessories.
The electrostatic cleaner adsorption generated by 4-10 electrostatic rollers extracts impurities in the tea, such as hair, broom bristles, tea fluff ash, thatch, woven bag silk, plastic scraps, iron filings, etc.
DL-6CJDCZ-780-5 electrostatic dust removal cleaner adopts five 780mm rollers. Powered by 1.5kw (380V 50Hz) with dual vibration motors, it delivers cleaning efficiency over 92% and hourly capacity ≥300kg. Optimized electrostatic separation design effectively clears lint, dust and lightweight foreign contaminants in tea. With mature conveyor and sorting bed structure, this machine balances processing yield and purification effect, a cost-effective option for medium-scale tea production lines.
This White Stone Matcha Mill can grind tea leaves into 15μm ultrafine matcha powder.
The DQM-150 features a robust 110L inner and outer 304 stainless steel tank powered by an 11kw pure copper core reduction motor. The machine employs an automated feeding system with a 60L large-capacity hopper, transferring raw materials via a flexible screw conveyor driven by a speed-adjustable motor (0-300r/min).
A tea pressing machine is a specialized device used in tea processing to compress loose tea leaves into solid, compact forms—commonly known as tea cakes, bricks, or tuos. These machines apply controlled pressure and sometimes heat to create uniformly shaped tea products that are easier to store, transport, and age.

Not all teas benefit from compression. The process is ideal for:
Pu-erh Tea (Both Raw & Ripe): The most famous pressed tea. Compression slows oxidation and promotes microbial activity for superior aging.
Heicha (Dark Tea): Including Hunan fu brick tea and Guangxi liu bao tea.
Aged Oolong: Some traditional Taiwan oolongs are pressed for aging.
White Tea: Occasionally pressed into cakes for aging potential.
Black Tea: Less common, but some regions produce compressed black tea bricks.
Teas to avoid: Green teas and most fresh oolongs, as compression damages their delicate flavors and aromas.
For Producers:
Space Efficiency: Compressed tea requires 70-80% less storage space
Transport Safety: Reduced breakage during shipping
Aging Enhancement: Creates ideal micro-environments for microbial development
Consistency: Produces uniformly weighted and shaped products
Market Appeal: Traditional forms attract collectors and enthusiasts
For Consumers & Collectors:
Long-term Storage: Properly pressed cakes can age for decades
Flavor Evolution: Develops complex profiles unavailable in loose tea
Portion Control: Easy to break off consistent amounts for brewing
Historical Tradition: Connects to centuries-old tea culture practices

Manual Presses: Traditional wooden or stone molds with lever systems. Ideal for small batches and artisanal producers.
Hydraulic Presses: Modern machines offering precise pressure control (typically 5-50 tons). Most common for commercial production.
Steam-Assisted Presses: Combine steam softening with pressure for smoother compaction without damaging leaves.
Automatic Pressing Lines: Integrated systems that weigh, steam, press, and sometimes wrap teas in continuous operations.
Production Scale: Small studios need 5-10 ton presses; factories require 30+ ton automated systems
Tea Type: Delicate teas need gentler pressure than robust pu-erh
Shape Variety: Some machines offer interchangeable molds for cakes, bricks, or nested bowls
Material Contact: Food-grade stainless steel prevents contamination
Pressure Control: Adjustable settings accommodate different tea densities
Weighing: Precise portions (commonly 100g, 357g, or 400g)
Steaming: Brief steam exposure makes leaves pliable (5-20 seconds)
Bagging: Placing leaves in cotton bags for shaping
Pressing: Applying controlled pressure (30 seconds to 5 minutes)
Cooling & Drying: Removing moisture before packaging
Wrapping: Traditional paper labeling and storage
Digital Pressure Controls: For repeatable precision
Quick-Change Mold Systems: Switching shapes in minutes
Energy-Efficient Designs: Reducing power consumption by up to 40%
Hygienic Improvements: Easy-clean surfaces and reduced crevices
While commercial machines cost $1,000-$20,000+, hobbyists can create simple presses using:
Car jacks for pressure
Custom wooden molds
Steaming baskets
Note: Achieving professional results requires experience and proper technique.
Tea pressing machines bridge ancient tradition and modern technology, enabling the transformation of ephemeral leaves into durable, age-worthy treasures. Whether you're a producer streamlining operations or a collector preserving tea legacy, understanding these machines reveals the fascinating intersection of culture, craftsmanship, and engineering in every compressed cake.
