Hi, i have understood that it is best to store the apples in a cold place for 2 weeks before pressing (ideally when the apples skin has become a little soft)
But i am noticing that a lot of my apples are becoming bad in this process - so i was wondering your experiences - do you store them, how and for how long?
I have a few apples where the skin is brown the apple dont seem the have taken any damage or become soft - should these be discarded? (look pictures)
And i have some which have been stored with a bit too much humidity and they seem to have some surface mold (look pictures) which i think comes from the other apples which have gone bad in same storage
Would you wash these and still use them? There is nothing else wrong with them other than to mold on the skin
By the way i am making natural cider, so no use of campden og commercial yeast.
Thank you for your time and help!
