COFFEE PULPERS FOR SETTLERS. 



In consequence of representations made to Messrs John Gordon by the 

 Director of Public Gardens, they designed a small Coffee Pulper, the 

 "Jamaica," some time ago, the price of which was quoted at £14. 



They have now been able to construct two different machines at a 

 much lower price, viz. : £10 each. The Director inspected the models 

 lately in London, and is inclined to think that the "India" would prove 

 a more useful pulper than the "Colombia." 



The following information (with electros) has been kindly furnished 

 by the makers : — 



Gordon's Patent Coffee Pulping Machines, "The Colombia" and 



"The India." 



Both these Pulper s have been especially designed to meet the require- 

 ments of Planters of very small estates and they will be found to be 

 very strong, simple and serviceable machines. 



The ripe Coffee Cherries and feed water should be delivered into the 

 water box, which is formed in the hopper, so that the water may float 

 the Coffee over the division into the machine : the supply is regulated 

 by the feed- water. 



The " Colombia" consists of a grooved disc of hard cast iron, fixed to 

 a"shaft which runs in a long bearing mounted on a suitable standard, 

 which also carries the bar A and a hopper.
