We have a grinder, press, press bags, shiny information
plates, grinder-motors, a lot of electric parts, and insurance. Here Bob shows
the grinder mechanism to Dr. Norton.
The press is amazingly easy to use – at the VIGA meeting I was turning the wheel using only one finger. The mash
emerges from the press almost dry to the touch.
Bob is refining the grinder-hopper interface so the fruit
will move smoothly through to the grinder with no extra prodding, and placing the handles for easy transport. Photography and a manual are next; we'll send out email and postcards when we are ready to take orders.
We look forward to many cider
parties in 2014.
