Default Cider apple pulper update

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.


Well done Rob, but where are the pics so we can see it?


on my cellphone at present
