I got about 100 lbs of apple to press
A friend of mine suggested using a burlap sack as filter bag.
However there is a lot of loose fibres with the burlap sack I have, which im afraid will get into the finish cider . I could re-filter the cider through a t-shirt or something.
Just wondering if this would be effective or if there is a better method .?
 
Why not a 5 gallon paint strainer bag?

I have a rack and cheese press that i use a sheer window curtain cut into squares to make the cheeses.
