Large Cider Press- Andover area

1 year ago | Lol (Member)

I have just brought a large cider /wine press 100 litre and it is in the process of being refurbished.

I am also making an apple scrattler to pulp the apples.

If your interested in making cider or want to hire me and equipment (I am only thinking about this at the moment) drop me a line. ( this is not a money making venture, but it would be nice to recover some of the costs & generally help other people).

It maybe possible for you to come to me with your apples!

If you're new to cider making don't make the mistake of buying a small press, cider making is fun but labour intensive!

It actually belongs to my brother who lets say wasn't overly impressed when I told him I was trying to sell it. But everything has its price. :wink:

Hi Hamish
If your brother is interested in selling it perhaps we could come and see it. It's actually for a friend of mine who's based in Dorset. How far away are you and has your brother got a price in mind?

I reckon Dorset would be over 150 miles away from me, I'll ask about a price.
