Been doing a search to no avail. Thought I'd ask here.
Just got a Breville centrifugal juicer for my b-day. I want to juice a couple of bushels of apples that I got and ferment into a nice dry cider. I'm not sure if I should be concerned about the apple seeds and cyanide at all. I know that a centrifugal juicer doesn't really do as much damage to the seeds as other types of juicers will. I also know I can just seed/core before juicing if I'm that worried. I'd rather not have to, but am willing to do so if it's a credible concern.
I've read juicing threads that warn about seeds, and others that say that they're no problem. I've also read distilling threads about how including them might and might not be a problem. Haven't found many hard cider threads one way or the other.
Anyone have any input? Thanks!
