Good cider reciepe

[The Happy Squirrel]

I need a good reciepe for apple cider. I have no tool like a press or a mill or anything. Anyone got any ideas?

Not much to it... the only ingredient is apples. If you don't have a press you can do it the manual way - core then puree the apples in a food processor, dump the puree into cheesecloth & squeeze the juice out. Don't do a whole lot at a time because it only lasts about 5-7 days in the fridge, unless you want to get hardcore and pasturize it.

i worked at a cider mill as a teenager. franklin cider mill (im guessing you know the one Jeffbx ) you dont need to core the apples but i tell you Golden and Red Delicious and Ida Red mix are the best mix for a sweet cider. you also can buy a adapter to ferment the cider to make a great Apple jack. but dont pasturize the cider if you plan on making Apple Jack.

ps. make sure you wash out the cheese cloth good after you squeeze the cider out and dispose of the pulp .as it eat the cloth if you don't ~
