Is that food in it?

If so, I'd guess it's a soy curd press

Wait, so you pump this thing up and down until frothy white liquid is present? Then you drink it? Hmmm Sounds kinky...

Not all cheese... some cheese products do need to have more of the liquid (whey) removed from the curds, though.

I ass-u-me what we are looking at is a press to remove liquid from the white-looking stuff between the plates, is that correct?

:) And in the case of Ricotta, the whey is then heated to curdle a second time....

Also possibly a butter press?

Ah yes, didn't think of that. Now that I'm looking carefully at it, though, I'm thinking that it is not pressing an edible material. It looks a little to grungy and industrial.

That and the sudsy looks bothers me a little... But... I've eaten food made on worse looking equipment... And, as a point, the food would never touch the dirty looking bits of this machine, so I think food is still a viable possibility.

ETA: I asked if it was a food product quite a while ago, when I suggested it might be a soy curd press... No answer on that point as of yet though.
