our cider adventure year 2

[snowy91]

This week we picked our 2 Zestar trees to start our new season for cider. We pressed about 140 lbs of apples today to get 7 gallons or so of juice. We will boil this down to about 1 1/2 gallons of boiled cider that is used in the back sweetening of the hard cider later.

last years cider is not gone yet, but when finished it will look like this and taste fantastic!
