Creating Applejuice

Once a year, when the harvest was good, we create applejuice.
We had collected about 170 Kg apples in the last days and weeks, and today was the time to press it to juice.

We had an appointment with the owners of an apple press machine and so we brought our crop to them.

After sorting out the bad ones, the apples got washed.

The the fruits got shreddered and caught in a coarse net. There were several layers of apple puree, that got pressed.

After that the juis was filtered and heated to 80°C to kill all germs.

And the last step was to fill up the fresh juice into bags:

All in all we got exact 100 liter pure biological very tasty apllejuice today. That is more than enough for our familiy for one year. We paid 90 € for it, a prive you cannot pay in a supermarket for bio-juice.
This machine and the process is sponsored by Bine.
