Hi y'all,
THBF's newest addition here.
Just recently built myself a press out of some old wood and a car jack and managed to convert a sack (15kg?) of apples into pulp using a spare piece of 2x4". I've then chucked the mush into pieces of net curtains and crushed the juice out of them (about 6L) which is in a bucket by the radiator wrapped in a duvet with a home made airlock in the top (made from a pen, a berocca tube, an old pill bottle, with a spot of glue and the help of Mr Drill).
The airlock is happily bubbling away, which feels me with almost paternal pride ... but now I want to do more!!!
Where can you get apples at the moment - have I missed them - are they all fallen and manky now?
Is there anyone in Stockport with more apples than they know what to do with?
Looking forward to more alcohol based fun in the future!
TTFN
