mole trapper 1,693 Posted September 15, 2019 Report Share Posted September 15, 2019 Didn't make a drop last year. Got all the apples up together ready then supposedly had a stroke, so gave them all away. Not a great year for apples in our own orchards, but we've been offered far more than we can process by our customers. So we start accumulation this week with a view to processing in about a fortnight. How's everyone else looking? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mole trapper 1,693 Posted September 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Jok' you get them from Vigo. They are expensive, but it's an incredible bit of kit. It turns apples or whatever into pulp as fast as you can pour them in. I honestly can't recommend them highly enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's the biggest non commercial press Vigo do with the ratchet. However this year we may just rent the powerful apple organisation hydraulic one as we are going to have so many apples to process.
