Pressing Apples For Hard Cider, Apple Scrap Vinegar & Home Canned Apple Juice
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 жов 2024
- Fall has arrived! We spent a day with our friends on St. Joseph Island pressing apples fresh from their apple trees. We use the cider to make hard apple cider as well as home made apple scrap vinegar and preserved apple juice using a water bath canner. Now we'll have apple everything for quite a while!

When I was living with someone on a small holding we raised several pigs. We had walnut trees, apples and pear trees and they got several cooked meals from off cuts of veggies from the veg plot. The pork was out of this world. It was absolutely delicious.. so pigs munching on apples will taste amazing.
Sounds amazing
Hey guys, I hope all has been well. great information in this video. I bet you guys had fun picking and processing apples.
Joey! It was a great time. Cheers buddy!
That island has sooo many deer what a beautiful place.
Definitely a huge population of deer! Our venison and pork sausage recipe video was actually made with a deer hit by a schoolbus on the island 😆
Yup, definitely going to use the mesh bag to corral the apples
Looked like a fun day for all ❤️
It was!
Happy critters eating well ! That will be some great meat !
Yes it will!
Take one of your 5 gallon buckets and cut bottom out. Then slide over press it will keep all the juice that squirts out sides from being wasted. You should experiment with the depth of screws in your apple grinder to become efficient also b
I betcha that apple juice is awesome tasting with those fresh eggs and smoked bacon for breakfast.
You bet! It’s so tasty ice cold! Gotta hold back and make sure we don’t drink it all too fast
Lovely video! Lovely family!
that's going to be so good. Looked like a great day with friends, too
The cider is bubbling away nicely already! Eli and I went to high school together, then owned a coffee roasters together, and we both ended up in the same area a thousand kilometres from where we met 😂
@@Wilderstead small world!!!
@@OakKnobFarm indeed!
Wonderful, great stuff right there 👍
It was a great day with great rewards. Thanks Lisa!
Might have to come for a sampler... nice job
Yeah man. Ill let you know when we bottle it up for sure.
Very cool video! Just got apples..thank you for doing the vinegar video I'm trying it!
It’s so easy to make and so good! Thanks Tracy!
I learned alot from this video.
Looks tasty there eh! might have to try making some never had any before normally I'm a red wine drinker...
Thanks for sharing
It's tasty alright!
Fabulous work, you two! Smart to collaborate with your neighbours to share the tasks and resources. Your videos are relevant to us and I am learning a lot. I know your environment well but now am in south Alberta. It's honey here, not maple syrup!
Thanks Glenda! From a Algoma area originally?
@@Wilderstead I lived and spent time in Thunder Bay and Wawa. Beautiful land up there. I learned to enjoy winter there but every part of Canada has its gems. You may know this but if you cover late season carrots in lots of straw/insulated tarps then snow blankets them and then you can dig out fresh sweet carrots into winter. (As long as rodents don't bury under the insulation!)
Yup! We still have carrots in the ground here!
GREAT WORK 👍💞
Thank you so much 😀
Would love to learn more about foraging and how to preserve..many 👍 THANKS
Luckily we have a whole foraging playlist! You can find it on our channels main home page. ua-cam.com/video/ivfMZW468_U/v-deo.html
Let me know when it's time to taste 😀👍. ATB
Will do buddy. Cheers!
Hard cider with higher alcohol...someone's getting hammered at Thanksgiving!
You know it Jim 😂
We have a couple nice apples trees in our yard, unfortunately we lost our best one this year to a hungry forest pig (a.k.a. black bear)
Oh man, that's too bad! Luckily we haven't had our usual fall bear traffic here...yet!
@@Wilderstead yeah bears and deer are steady nuisance here. Every part of my garden looks like Fort Knox lol and well apple trees are open and unprotected. Bears dont just eat the apples they break the tree down and eat at ground level.
👍👍👍
So I followed this. And strained the apples after 2 weeks. PH is bellow 4. The whole liquid is very gelatinous. Why?
May we ask where you got the blue bins with the handles? Thank You
They were given to us by a friend. They originally were for shipping olives in brine.
@@Wilderstead right on! They would be awesome for trucking sap out of the bush! 🍁
@@ouradventureourway Very convenient for sure!
What brand of press? Where can I get it?
No idea. We got it used. It’s a very common design of Apple/fruit press though.
If I don’t have a juice press can I juice it in a juicer?
Not sure haven’t tried it. There are probably some UA-cam videos you could search for though.
new sub u,.,
Welcome!
I'm a little concerned your "food grade" buckets say Canadian Tire 😳
Nah. High-density polyethylene 2. Marked as such. Same type of plastic used in the food and beverage industry. Aside from the ‘Canadian Tire’ branding.
@@Wilderstead that's good to hear!
Yeah, we’ve discussed it in a bunch of videos. Same buckets that we use by the dozen to collect sap for maple syrup and many other things.
