A couple of my brothers had gleaned about 40 bushels of apples from a friend's orchard.
This week my whole family got together to make cider.
First the apples are washed and cut in half.
The apples are dumped into a hopper and chopped into a coarse mash.
Our cider press has two baskets. One can be filling with apple mash while the other is pressed into cider.
Nothing beats a drink of fresh cold cider.
The cider is strained and poured into jars and containers. Frozen cider keeps the fresh cider flavor, but because of freezer space, I can most of our portion of the cider. Canned cider tastes more like apple juice.
Do any of you make cider?
