BAWKtober Day 3 - Cider Press

Can't wait for a sippy sippy~

If you'd like to support my BAWKtobering by buying a commission or a treat for my spoiled, spoiled chickens, all my links are in my pinned- *i am immediately mobbed by a flock of chickens and dragged off stage in a cloud of feathers*

The sheer beauty - of apples in a bushel basket.

Because we had to store the apples for two months before we had a time when we could all do the pressing, they had lost a little of their juiciness. We didn't get as much cider as we would have earlier. However, sometimes life just gets like that. Dealing with Rosalie's broken leg put a lot of other plans on hold temporarily.

The best cider pressing we ever did was years ago when we invited members of our church. Some people brought their own apples, if I remember correctly, and folks took turns with the work. Except for poor C, who was a hulking teenage boy. HE got put on permanent duty turning the big screw that does the actual pressing. He was just that much stronger than anyone else present. (And he was perfectly good humored about it.)

There's a crank on the side that runs a chipper, the chopped apples fall into the wooden basket below, then the screw presses a flat piece of wood down until the whole machine is creaking with tension. Cider runs out though the slats and down through a hole into a waiting bucket.

Went up to the Riverhouse this weekend after borrowing an apple press from The Scavenger. On the autumn equinox we pressed over 10 gallons of apples for 2.5 gallons of juice. I introduced my dad to fresh cider whisky and it might be his favorite drink. We dropped in crushed campden tablets to kill off bad bacteria before dropping in yeast, the good organisms, a day later.

Then I had a 3 hour meeting for CritWitchCon on Sunday. Ugh we are so close and there is still a lot of behind the scenes work to do. So many ADHD organizers in the mix we also hold body double/mirroring meetings too so we can get separate things done at the same time.

Woke up in Portland to a lovely rainy autumnal morning today. I had washed all my bedding including duvet and pillows in the first step towards having a clean room for CritWitchCon next weekend, still a lot more work to do in here. A cozy clean bed with chilly air coming in makes it hard to get up and I've done as much work from my phone and I could so far, especially when Ian B brought me coffee in bed. I guess it's time to get up, est some food and pack some orders.

the Romans had lead pipes for two reasons: one, lead is soft and it's easily worked into pipes; two, it makes your water delicious and slightly sweet

Why was I today years old when I learned that lead compounds taste SWEET and THAT'S why kids eating paint chips back in the day was a concern?
