we got this bad boy out

So this weekend we had guests from Finland, Moonika and her daughter Kalli. We also made apple juice.
On saturday I gathered all the apples and sorted the bad ones from the good ones.

On sunday we got this bad boy out. This purees the apples.

This is the press. You use the ridged trays (put them on top of each other), put pieces of cloth on top of the tray and smear the pureed apples on it, then wrap it up, do it again. When you've used up all the trays and cloths, you twist the thingy on top and ot presses the trays together and apple juice starts flowing out of the spout into a vessel.
Then you add some sugar to the juice and bring it almost to boil, then bottle it.
