OK...let's get back on track here!

Can anyone recommend a GOOD juicer?

Actually...can someone point me to the most KICK-A$$ juicer on the market today?

Thanks,

The Champion Juicer high dollar but well worth it. The pulp comes out almost dry. The motor on it is the size of a bench grinder.

I run my apples through a juicer then pour the juice into a jelly strainer. This got rid of most of the sediment and the batch I have now has been bubbling strong for 3 weeks with only a little yeast nutrient added.

I have found that it is much more expensive to buy fruit and juice it, than it is too just buy quality juice. Unless you get a really good deal.

I just recently read here on one of these posts that one could use concentrate? Would any of you recommend using this instead of the liquified gallon jugs of juice/cider? It'd be much cheaper.

my apples were free so it was alot cheaper.

Sure, as long as there isn't any preservatives listed on the ingredients. Sorbate is a big one to watch out for.

I think the quality of fresh pressed cider is a little better, but there is nothing wrong with concentrate or juice from the store either.

Hey crisco think of it this way, which would you rather drink juice or juice from concentrate. Its also kind of like using liquid malt extract in beer. It isn't quite the real thing. I have used concentrate as a sugar alternative, because I figure I can add the sugar I want for a certain SG, and I might as well add some more apple flavor, but I try not to buy juice made from concentrate, much less make it at home.

But it's really just a personal choice.
