2 words... APPLE JACK.
@@randallparker8477⚠️ God has said in the Quran:
🔵 { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 )
🔴 [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 )
🔵 And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 )
🔴 But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 )
🔵 And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 )
⚠️ Quran
🔴 What Is Islam?
🔴 Islam is not just another religion.
🔵 It is the same message preached by Moses, Jesus and Abraham.
🔴 Islam literally means ‘submission to God’ and it teaches us to have a direct relationship with God.
🔵 It reminds us that since God created us, no one should be worshipped except God alone.
🔴 It also teaches that God is nothing like a human being or like anything that we can imagine.
🌍 The concept of God is summarized in the Quran as:
📖 { “Say, He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He does not give birth, nor was He born, and there is nothing like Him.”} (Quran 112:1-4) 📚
🔴 Becoming a Muslim is not turning your back to Jesus.
🔵 Rather it’s going back to the original teachings of Jesus and obeying him.

How much for that same one you made, brother. It's nice
The author does like to from scratch, ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practise the full stack project, is still great.
Jason will do ANYTHING to keep from working on the Airstream, lol.
I was thinkin he'd do anything to stay out of the house 🤣
Either way great video as always
😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah I’m wondering who’s going to finish his project first, Jason or Spag’s and his wife’s closet. I’ve always wanted a apple press though. Thanks Jason
Lol
It’s not just him. I’ve currently taken up sewing to avoid my book binding project 😅
Maybe this is a US vs Australia thing, but around here it's not cider until it ferments. It's just delicious fresh apple juice.
Was thinking the same thing 😂 bet it tasted really good tho
Yeah, in the US, cider is the fresh pressed apple juice. Apple juice is the cider after it has been filtered (and usually pasteurized) until clear. Hard cider is fermented apple cider/juice. My father would make his own hard cider by setting a couple gallons of purchased fresh-pressed cider (from a local farm) in the larder with either loose fitting caps or actual wine-maker's airlocks, and wait for the natural yeasts already in the cider to do it's job. As I recall it was mixed results, but usually turned out well.
@@Sembazuru, Thanks, very informative.
@@Sembazurucider is alcoholic. It has been since 55BC. It originates from the South West of England.
It's a US thing. Different nomenclature to describe apple juice products. I'm still trying to figure out how he's going to consume 25 gallons of cider before it ferments or go bad...
I think the awkward way the pressing wheel was designed so that you can put a stick or something similar in between the four rods to apply some extra torque and pressure to get every last bit of apple juice. Nice build!
This is exactly correct
Problem with using the long stick like it was designed for is that the whole frame either wants to tip over or rack. I think a diagonal brace and a base member to stand on is needed.
@@leonschmidt7 no different than his current solution. You’re just making the lever arm longer.
Came here to say the same thing
Exactly what I was going to say
I absolutely love that. He has put an AC motor on a device that he was unwilling to use the festool domino.
Love the content, love the humor and love the answers to laziness
My thoughts exactly. Disappointed he didn't use the wheel. But it's his project to do with as he wishes I suppose.
You're supposed to use a 2x4 on the small wheel to get more leverage when pressing. That's why the small wheel is shaped like that.
What I do is turn down the volume and just watch. Just like old Wordless Workshop, I get the idea and a chuckle. Nice work
You might want to create a wooden in-feed chute for the apple shredder so fingers are further way from the blades, especially if you intend to press (gang) your kids into apple cider production in the future
Also, a bigger hopper is less work overall, as you can load up A LOT of apple to munch in the hopper before actually munching it.
I have plans to use an old stainless kitchen sink for that purpose once I get a shredder made
Wow, just sat down with a morning coffee and here comes a video from Bourbonmouth. What a wonderful way to start my day.
Its Saturday. ;-) @@mikediamond437
Same!! 🙏
@@mikediamond437
No, I don't work while having my morning coffee 😂😂
White oak would be the preferred lumber for the trays, buckets and press plate anyway. Being almost completely impervious to water it would definitely be a family heirloom for many generations to come. Production presses are usually hard maple but mostly due to cost efficiency.
I love how every project you do is so different. Loved the build
The small wheel with the 4 tubes on it is shaped like this so you can hook a long wooden stud in between them and use the big leaver to really crank the press down and squeeze all of the juice out.
Yup, you can tell theres more juice to be had by the pressings not sicking together like a cake.
@@dougaltolan3017 tastier apple pulp for the cows ;)
@@vincentdesjardins1354 sure is, but there's a wee problem...

Sorry cows, you lose.

As an armature woodworker, I love watching you create amazing projects and my 10 year old loves your funnay narration. Keep it up buddy.
You build armatures out of wood? So that's where electricity comes from. And all this time I thought you had to wait for a lighting storm to fly a kite with a metal key hanging on the string.. Technology is just passing by me faster and faster! 😮
Great build and brought back many memories doing this with my family for decades. Interesting using the fly wheel to go on the screw handle. However you might find you could squeeze more cider from the apple pieces if you use a good axe handle between the 4 stubs sticking up on the handle rotate under pressure. Also need to build a nice maple hopper on top of grinder so you can dump in large amount of apples. Thank you for my morning coffee drinking entertainment and nostalgia time!. I am 62 and started making cider since mid 20's so you got this kid!
Love thisAs a kid, I went with my Grandad to his parents homestead in White Bird, ID. We found the remnants of their old cider press, so Grandpa took it home and rebuilt it. I know have great memories of cider making 'parties'. So happy to see you doing this project!
I remember as a 8 year old in the 60s, helping my Italian grandfather press the grapes each year for his wine. All by hand and the Press was a huge round concrete pedestal with a heavy bar that you had to insert above your head and you got a half a turn and then you had to pull it out, walk around to the other side and do it all over again. It reminded me of the old Grist Mill in the Western movies with the kid riding the mule around and around. Even after he no longer made wine, just going into the cellar and smelling the fermented residue stirred up great memories. Thanks for posting this and making an old man smile.
This was absolutely AWESOME brother!!! I'm soooo happy to see another really cool build! My son watched this with me and said to me that he wants to build this so I will probably have to start building this shortly so he can do another project with daddy (he's 4 and loves watching things get made out of just regular things...).
Thank you so much for another inspirational build brother! Can't wait for the next one!
Beautiful build! My father in law has an orchard and we press apples, on a press very similar to yours, every year. We usually save around 15 gallons to make hard cider. Absolutely delicious.
My family still has an original apple press we used on the farm. The press handle was designed to put a piece of wood in it for leverage. We usally had about a 4ft piece of wood in it. What ever was handy. The mushroom topic the round wheel is what holds the lever in. Love your content and creativity. Thanks!
One of my favorite builds you’ve done. Can’t say it enough, how much I appreciate that you still actually make stuff and not just advertise. Loved this build.
31:49 the reason for the shape of the press handle is because your suppose to shove a long a long stick in between the nubs for leverage when pressing and easily reposition it between the nubs after rotating it.
Nice build, Jason! This brought back a lot of memories. My hometown has a craft festival in early October, and my scout troop used to run a cider booth. Our press was a little taller, and we had to hand crank it, but the cider was the best!
Same…in NC
My daughter has been shopping for a makeup vanity (eww, shopping). I was taking her to dance and had one of your videos playing in the background. I didn't know she was watching it until she said she wanted you to build a vanity. Broke my heart she didn't ask me, but at least she has good taste.
Love the humor, love the information and the lessons in woodworking life. Thanks
Interesting and cool build. You should do a follow-up showing your brewing/fermenting setup
This went to my all time favorites from you or pretty much any other channels I've seen, very unique idea and I really want to do something similar in future :)
This is by far one of my favorite projects of yours yet. Great job, great video. Enjoy the cider.
Jason, one of your very best ideas and builds. Way to go.
Steel is iron with added carbon. Often steel has other additives like nickel and niobium (previously called columbium). As for whether your parts are iron or steel you would have to refer to your manufacturer, typically cast parts are iron due to its lower melting point (depending on mixture). If I had to guess based on the application of your parts, I would guess you have a high carbon iron, as a low carbon iron tends to be more brittle. Steel in this application runs the risk of warping over time from the stresses applied.
For the joins on an heirloom project like this I would go for dowels. Historically that would be accurate. In early American years square nails, dowels and hand made screws would be the most common joint hardware. Given that dowels are today's only commonly available option that's my recommendation. You may be interested in the benefits of square nails and hand twisted screws. Alternative to these, historically, dovetails and other cut in joins are probably most common.
I though pure iron was weak. I think iron has always been unknowingly steel in one way or another, but we reefer to steel as such when the recipe is calculated.
the best way i explain this is: Iron is a raw material. Steel is an alloy that uses iron as its base raw material.
but what you said works too. LOL
@@SRG-Learn-Makers from a chemistry standpoint nothing is pure, but effectively pure iron is brittle. It's hard, the break rotors in your car are "pure" iron (to my knowledge anyway) as are a lot of wood burning stoves since it radiates heat well. A lot of iron is purified with silicon, and I'd imagine there's an amount left over in the process. Bear in mind that I'm nothing like an expert. A lot of foundry research for various projects but this is what I've learned.
@@CopperTOPDave yeah, I have a tendency to over complicate things. But you're right, iron is on the periodic table, and steel is made from iron.
Trying to remember back to my college days. Cast iron usually contains more than 2% carbon, where as cast steel contains between 0.1-0.5% carbon. There is also a difference in how the carbon is distributed. carbon in cast iron forms rosettes which it doesn’t do in steel. But I could be mistaken as I studied this a very long time ago.
The spokes on top of the press screw are for a beam/board to give you leverage while pressing.
Without a doubt, one of your best builds ever Jason! 👏👏🍎🍎🍏🍏👍👍
This is awesome. Exactly the kind of project that makes me want a proper woodshop. ❤
I never thought I needed an apple press ... now, I'm not so sure! Great build and great video!
My grandfather had an apple press. Every time I asked about it he said it’s only fun to use the first time. From there, it’s nothing but work and flies! I always wanted to try it. Guess I’ll live vicariously through you, Jason.
And the cleaning. My god, the cleaning.
Love it! When I was a kid, we lived on a property with lots of old apple trees and we rented a similar press every fall. It was hand cranked, and also attracted a ton of wasps. But the juice was amazing. One of my fondest childhood memories.
Really enjoyed this video,relaxing too watch and enjoyed the build,very cool press, im impressed.
Loved this. Totally something I thought I’d never see you build. That’s why I loved it. Now take all that cider and you love whiskey and make your own brand of Apple whiskey. Lol. Great video Jason
The build is awesome but I'm really nervous about that automatic grinder... without a guard, cap or emergency stop, it's a scary thing to have around kids and people with long hair.
Had one similar as a child and my father would make wine each year. It’s amazing and I’m probably going to order plans so I can recreate it. Great video
Best Apple-cide video I've seen in a while! Thank you Jason!
You’d be hard “pressed” to find a better video!
Impressive project! Freshly squized apple juice just taste wonderful! One question - is the glue you used for the tray (thixo?) food safe?
Nope. It also contains bisphenol.
Pick up a plastic tray to go under the buckets and cut a hole in that or line the tray with some flexible plastic sheet. Epoxy is not food safe.
I've started making my own code and mead this year. I was literally thinking, "i should build my own press," then this video popped up. Talk about serendipity!
Very good work.
And also super well explained.
I like it very much.
Many thanks for this tutorial.
Okay, it's really cool build. But I'm wondering, what about the fixo in the bottom tray / drip spout? Is that actually food safe? Because that juice is running right through there...
That project was so cool! Great job! It is beautiful.
What a fun video !
Thank you for sharing !
Really fun build … your very talented !
👏😀❤️
Neat little machine, but it's apple juice, not cider 😅 anyway great video as always 👍 😀
Difference in local terminology. In the US, this is cider...juice is filtered (clear), cider is unfiltered (cloudy), and hard cider is fermented.
What a great build! Anyone know whether the adhesive used on this build is food safe? I'd be worried that the adhesive could contaminate the apple juice/sauce.
Yes, at least how he used it. Titebond 3 is approved by the FDA for “indirect food contact”, which basically means that you shouldn’t use it as a finish but it’s fine for its intended purpose.
Your videos are great and easy to follow, everything is perfectly explained in detail and even an amateur like myself can do it.
Next up: learning how to ferment cider! Not bad for making it up as you went along. Seems to be perfectly servicable. Thanks for sharing!
So how long do you think you can keep the cidre well after you pressed it?
Not long. Homemade cider goes bad pretty quickly. Maybe a week or so.
@@JohnClark-tt2bl That's what I was wondering as well, is boiling it a thing to kill the bacteria or will that change the flavor too much?
@@justfasial01 It shouldn't change the flavor too much. Hot cider is a thing as well anyway.
So, I know there are certain epoxies that ARE food safe, but I couldn't find anything on THIXO that indicated it was. Any info on that?
What an ingenious idea for an episode, different and very entertaining ❤
Hey Jason, Chris from Minneapolis here. I sincerely want to thank you. Last night my almost 6 year old daughter, this Friday the 13th is her bday, broke both bones in her forearm. Watching this vid in full gave me a little break from getting the visual of horror in her face out of my mind.
She's doing fine now. She seems a little depressed or just in pain but it'll pass with time.
So again, a heartfelt thank you so so much Jason.
Truly awesome vid btw.
That's not cider, it's apple juice, give it 4 to 6 months to ferment
I grew up near an apple orchard in Michigan and went there often on school trips. Fresh apple juice is absolutely delicious and your video brought back a lot of great childhood memories. Excellent job and enjoy.
My family has been doing this for years with a similar press. It's a great tradition and highlight of our fall. I think this year we made 75 gal.
Great project! I have same problem and this is a solution! Cheers from Portugal!
Awesome video and looking forward to the series!
That is absolutely amazing!!! Thanks for Sharing!!
My friends father had one of these when I was a kid. As I recall, the apple grinder thingy was a maple branch turned to round. It had a bunch of roofing nails stagger nailed into it about halfway. Driven by an electric washing machine motor, apples didn't stand a chance. And you are right, there's nothing like apple cider that you just pressed moment ago! Nice video, thanks for sharing.
Sooooo cool! Thanks for sharing the build.
That was the best, most interesting, video I've watched in a long time. I have a 100 year old single barrel apple press in my garage, waiting to be restored. All of the original metal hardware, nuts, and square bolts, are there. All of the wood needs replaced, but enough of it is there for a pattern. I was going to go with white oak though.
Ok, this was soo cooooool. Great Video. Love your Channel.
Awesome video, Jason~!! We have a pear tree out front, but looks like it's time to expand the micro-orchard. Great project~!! I can see doing this build. Thanks for putting it out there~!!
This is fast becoming my favourite channel on the Tube🤓
I just spent last weekend making cider. I found it funny that this was recommended.
I did this this year. I have a 2 stage grinder, a rotary fruit mill and then a 1.5hp garbage disposal. It works like a charm when combined with press and press plates.
That press is a thing of beauty. Great work.
Really enjoyed that one ,class!!!!
I have great memories as a kid heading to the neighbor's house and spending the day making cider, my favorite part was feeding the leftover pulp to the sheep, and yes they loved it as much as your neighbor's cows. Nothing better than fresh, real apple cider.
My grandpa made one of these completely from scratch using an old car jack for the press and a small electric motor for the crusher. We made homemade apple cider for years, not to mention apple sauce.
I wish I could go back to those days.
This was a great and useful project that I now crave to make. That apple cider you made watered my mouth as I type. 🤤
Thanks for sharing it!
I built this same press from scratch several years ago. It’s been an awesome machine
That's awesome!!! A lot of work but so worth it!
I got some Tim Taylor/Home Improvement vibes with this video. More power!
Extra bonus…mixes great with Jack❤
Enjoyed the video and his humor.
There's so many uses for that good juice. I used to live on a apple farm, my cousins had pear farm. We had presses for the left overs and sold those in gallon containers. It was hard work.
Great project Jason! The press was too cool!
Love it! Beautifully made.
Jason, great work and video Sir!
Brings back memories of my childhood looking at that thing. Tasty Cider
Get such a kick watching you and I always learn something.❤❤❤
Fascinating! Neat project and I learned some stuff, too.
Great build! Cyser Time (Apple Mead)!! Really enjoy your videos.
Using Thixo MAY be overkill but we can guarantee it will never, ever, fall apart 😂
love this project
Great video as always!
I didn't know you can mix apple cider with bourbon, you left that part out.
This is too cool! Great job man!
Absolutely delightful! Enjoy all the juice!
Nice job! In the beginning, I thought you were going to say that you wondered if there was a way to make the apples go up. 😂 Now you just need to make a still!
That is sweet, Literally. Nice build.
I would recommend making a hopper for the apple smasher to catch spray and allow you to drop many in at a time.
This was an awesome episode! 🎉
That is a work of art!
That press would be great for making wine. Great video and fantastic build.
What a cool idea, and it’s gorgeous!
