Walnut Cleaning Cage Made for Harvest Season
When those walnuts start dropping, you don’t want to spend all day scrubbing hull fiber off by hand. This walnut cleaning cage pairs perfectly with a pressure washer or power washer to blast away hulls, slurry, and debris in minutes.
- Heavy-gauge American wire for long-term durability
- Tall cage design for strong, up-close water pressure
- Easy-to-open door for loading & dumping
- Raised-wire feet for the ideal angled wash
Walnut Washer Designed for Real-World Use
This isn’t a flimsy basket or imported mesh drum. It’s a practical, rugged walnut washer that holds up to years of seasonal work. Set it on the ground, angle it, and let your pressure washer do the rest.
The cage height allows the water jet to hit every side, breaking down hull fiber fast and flushing everything downstream. It’s perfect for:
- Freshly fallen black walnuts
- Stubborn, fiber-heavy hulls
- Large batches
- Folks who don’t want a big powered tumbler
If you do want a cracking tool to finish the job afterwards, check out our Black Walnut Nut Cracker — hand-built right here in the Ozarks.

Black Walnut Washing Cage — FAQs
How many nuts can the washing cage hold at once?
A full foraging bucket (5 gallons) fits comfortably inside with room for the water to circulate.
Do I need a pressure washer?
A pressure washer works best, but a strong hose with a jet nozzle can work on smaller batches.
Will the heavy-gauge wire rust?
The wire is built for outdoor use and holds up well to repeated seasonal washing.
Can I use this walnut washer for other nuts?
Yes — any nut that needs exterior cleaning before drying or cracking will wash well in the drum.
