The idea of cultivating apples has been around for a long time, but the evidence of actually making cider is probably about two thousand years old. This mill can do the same amount of work that took many nights with my juicer in's simply a matter of hours. The crusher works by spinning tines that grab the apples and mash them through a set of blades. And then you've got to press them. What cider still needs the day is itsa two thet proce.

How ya like them apples?! Well, liquified. And fermented. Author, podcaster, cider-maker and globally lauded beverage historian Gabe Cook, aka The Ciderologist, is an enthusiastic champion of this tragically overlooked drink, and he joins with a bushel full of facts, well-spun yarns and tasting tips. Belly up for a foaming glass of friendly competition, bucolic farmhouses, DIY cider tips, film flam busters, cider recommendations from a pro, and a little ASMR. Cider: that cool friend in the corner who is too shy to boast about itself, so its wingman speaks up.
