Thank you Pierre, I was just yesterday talking to a man from Brittany who grows 6 acres of apple orchard to make apple juice and cider from, a very nice man.
great! I cant believe what comments are made here. Why do people not appreciate homemade stuff? its so much healthier and cleaner than what you can buy in supermarkets. no pesticides etc.....
Would have loved to see the mash in the bottom of the press after you were done. One step missing, what does the mash look like and can you use it for anything.
Help. The wood will only go down a certain amount before the rod you are turning can’t turn round anymore because it wants to go lower than the wooden frame . I hope that makes sence. So is this a design floor in the press or are you just not supposed to go down that low?
To answer your very old question and for anyone else reading: you simply place additional wooden blocks in between the half circles and top plate. Stack them like Jenga. In the video he only used 2 but in reality you would stack as many as necessary/as the threaded rod allows.
+Zenon Kolacz Hi, That particular press is a 12ltr. We also do a 6 and 18ltr. Yes the bag is very handy for catching larger pieces that come out although it is not a necessity, i usually just use a sieve at the spout which serves the same purpose. Yes it is ideal for grapes.
You can pasturise the juice once you've harvested using heat to kill off all the bacteria. But it's not essential. Ask yourself where hygiene is necessary in nature or where animals feed.
If a grinder requires you to hand quarter the apples first isn’t that a bit of a joke? To make things worse the pieces coming out of the grinder look big and chunky. The extraction efficiency must be worst case scenario😢
I bought a press like this and it was very unsafe to use. The metal bar in the middle got rusted and got into my juice. Also, the red paint, when turning to press the juice, the red paint fell into my juice. The pieces of wood that placed inside, the wood pieces got into my juice. I don’t recommend this product and suggest that it should be made of a different material that does not rusted as well as no paint, no wood.
Very suspicious cut in the video at 2:43 , just before the man says "the juice should start coming out" (which it doesn't) then it skips forward to having the juice in the bucket. Must be censoring the extreme effort it takes (if it's even possible) to produce juice from this press.

+Nicole Wackerle Thank you Nicole, we quite agree.
love your hand operated apple crusher!
Hell of a how 2do man! Thanks! to the point, no BS!
You can drink it as it is or ferment it to make cider

Probably Apple cider
Apple Cider Vinegar - just cover completely with water, (put a weight on top) and leave it for at least 3 months.

I am in Russia. Can we do this with potatoes/skulls of heretics?
How much effort does the pressing process involve?
and there we have it
612 apples
2 cups of apple juice
Do you cut the wormy parts out of the apples first?
I think the worm taste is his special ingrediance :-D
dont you have 2 put it on stove and heat it up?
Thank you for the demonstration, loved it. Could you be so kind to tell me where you purchased everything for the fruit press?
Spero che traducono in inglese, sarei curioso di sapere in quali contee, della gran bretagna, si beve piu sidro, e in quali si beve piu birra.
what make is that press please? i need to see if i can find it in australia in that size or the 18ltr. where can buy the bags? online from you?
pushing that wooden stick right above the grinder sounds like a bad idea.
great video, any construction tips?
what a hygienic method are using this for wine making? (you have kept the pressing wood on the lawn, how this would be hygienic
@@inharmonywithearth9982 good and I like this bye 👍👍

Ummm no different than picking and eating a apple fresh off the tree.
impressive.
With 4 more wooden blocks you could have got more juice out.
Can the rod with the screw thread be removed from the base or is it fixed in?
Hi Zork, i'm afraid the screw rod is welded to the base and is unable to be removed

is there a cheaper way?
sit on the apples until juice comes out
put pulp in jay cloth and squash by hand
apple juice or cider
That has to be a strong bit of wood your pressing down on there. If that snapped you'd hav no fingers left.
. 🍎 😊 👌

Very little physical effort, just a little patience.
Just do it with a breville juicer. And some filters.
Better

When did editing for time become censorship?
This time I will do it manually with the help of Woodglut designs.
Too much work for little gain. Seems inefficient to me
