How to Make Cider at Home the Easy Way: Part 1

ha ha He would have to be irish!

lol. start jackin'

Thank you very much for your cider making tutorials. Your press is ingenious, and I'll be copying the design myself.

I remember. That berry cider was lovely. What was in it? Hope you enjoy the videos.

alright mate, great video. i believe we had this same drunkin discussion in a field at the punk picnic in drumnacoo a few weeks ago?! i was the one with the turbo berry cider. im going to be making myself one of those presses this year and raiding the orchards! its time to start making the proper stuff and move away from the shop bought aple juice!

I was at the cider museum in Hereford, England just two days ago...I'm thinking about getting into this myself. Cider has replaced beer in my fridge these past few years.

Cool! My great grandfather was a Barrett from Moycullen (County Galway) and my great grandmother was an O'Dea from Galway City.

Nope. Tipperary with a hint of Galway accent. Im OIrish! :)

Use them all. At the end of the day its homemade booze. You'll enjoy drinking it and getting drunk coz you made it. We used green sour apples as they were all we could get on the trees around here. Our cider is lovely, dry taste. Like apple wine. Go with all of them or do one batch green, one batch red and one batch mixed. Then you'll know what tastes great next time.

Hope this helps.
Tom.

Hello mate!
The only apples I can choose to make Cider are the typical sweet red, and, sour green apples from the store. I understand that if the apples are sweet, then the Cider might taste way sweeter, or to sweet to be enjoyable. Should I then use green apples?
Cheers!

Do I detect a Newfie accent?

LOVE the home made press! I have been thinking about converting my press to hydraulic, and your video gave me some good ideas for how. Great videos!

All those other videos have ridicilously elaborate rigs. Keep it simple! Hope the press turns out ok for you. Happy Christmas.

spot on. we had awful trouble squeezing our apples and ending up buying gallons of ready pressed stuff. got to build one of these now, cant believe i didnt think of it before

Great video and well explained, ill be making one of these soon, cheers!

thats impressive. your really good at this, explaining and S**t .
