for the cider makers in the group.

The apple pulper works fine. An old $10 waste disposal unit, taken apart and
cleaned up and then reassembled. Now in its own collapsable stand. It can be
lifted in and out for portability and sits in a small aluminium sink. After
about the 8th apple the pulped up apples start sliding out the bottom tube.
Each whole apple takes about 5-10 seconds to become mush. The pulping will
be over in a few hours rather than the 2 days processing through the food
processor. The WD unit must be easily 20+ years old and is solid so should
handle a bit of abuse.
