I am looking for suggestions of commercial or DIY Cider Pressing solutions. What I am looking for most of all is a simple DIY press design that I could fit on the counter top and is light and easy to store. but i am open to any suggestions. On my first batch I ran the apples through my food processor and then hand pressed the "pulp" I then heated a gallon of water and put the "pulp" into it after i hand pressed it and extracted as much more sugars as i could that way. So far it is fermenting well. I am go home to Ca and getting ahold of a bunch of apples and pressing them there and bringing the juice home to ferment.
