HOW IT WORKS
NO NEED TO BOOK, JUST SHOW UP!
GATHER APPLES:
-
Gather up your apples from your garden, allotment or community project.
-
Take out any apples that are badly bruised or rotting, as we can’t juice those. You can bring as few or as many apples as you like.
GRAB SOME BOTTLES:
-
Collect some bottles to take your juice home in. To estimate how many bottles you need, weigh or count the apples. 1kg of apples - about 10 apples - will give you about 0.5 litres of juice.
COME ALONG:
-
Come along and join in. We’ll wash, scrat and press your apples and hand you your juice. It costs just 60p per litre.
-
You can also take the left over “pulp” home too. It’s great on the compost or to feed to animals.
ENJOY:
-
Then what? Cider, vinegar, pasteurised, or good old plain juice. We’ll have guides on what to do with your juice to take home too.
PRIVATE HIRE OF EQUIPMENT
If you are looking to press a large quantity of apples, we can hire out our equipment for private use
from late August into November. We have a 90-litre hydropress, a scratter and a 50 hydraulic press all available for hire and we also provide trugs and other necessary kit with any hire.
You need to be able to collect and return the equipment in your own vehicle and a refundable
deposit is required.
This year we are running on limited capacity and can only offer hire of the kit between Monday to Wednesday.
If you’d like to hire the kit, just get in touch with Beccy
