apple cider plans.. do you have any?
Ok we have just been given the ok to get some apples from two other properties and I would like to make some cider but to be hones I dont want to spend 250-350 in cash for a press. Do any one have plans for a apple cider press?

You are evil, giving me ideas like that. I wonder how hard it would be to make a basked that you could control flow well enough the juice would not get all over everything.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!

Well the 20 ton press was on sale this week so I got it for 199. plus tax. Now it is time to hunt down stell or cast iron pots at good will. Then I will take my dremal and make some slots or holes in them. Next I will find a pour pan..
I will post pics as It comes along.

Re: apple cider plans.. do you have any?
shame you aren't in upstate NY. I have a wine press sitting in the shed doing nothing. Don't think I will get near it in time to do any good. The 3 week trip to Stone Throw and Hilton Head will probably get there after first killing frost. Oh well maybe next year.
