Build a Rack and Cloth Apple (Cider) Press
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 10. 2016
- This press is very easy to build with simple lap joinery and a few mortise and tenon joints. The entire press is held together with carriage bolts so it can be easily disassembled for storage. I made mine out of white oak but other species could also be used. The accessories consist of a tray to collect the juice, racks(lattices) to direct the juice out of the stack, a form to hold the apple pulp as it is loaded, a top plate, and a press block.

Fascinating to see how your style (not to mention shop and equipment!!!) have changed across the years. Such consistently good content over that time too.
You have a woodshop that would make most men envious! You turned out a very professional looking and beautiful piece that is also functional, great job!
Thank you!
Beautiful! I've had an Apple Press on my list of projects for a long time. I get the house restoration and the solar array and the granary and barn jacked up, I'll be building one!
I started watching this thinking maybe he can show me how to make one. I thought I had enough tools but now I see I just have baby tools. What a great job. Love this video!
Very interesting work Matt. I enjoy all the process. Best part IMHO is the jig you made for gluing up the racks. Regards!
This guy is so good. I I lived near him, I would like shadow him all day watching his work :P
Very nice!
I loved your design, process, and video. Well done! Easily followed.
Nice one Matt, some great tips about hiding glue joints. I've seen these presses get used before, but I didn't realise it was such a simple machine to do it. And wow, a LOT of juice came out of it!
Really cool build. looks really nice
So freaking cool. I want some cider now!
Thanks Johnny!
Beautiful workmanship. And yes, I have serious workshop envy!
Loved this, Matt! My Dad and I built one of these a few years ago - although not as beautiful as yours - and it's still going strong!
I'm sure you know, but once the apples are formed (in muslin, or cheesecloth, etc) it's called 'a cheese'...
...mmmmn, cheese...
All the best, Toby.
Excellent build AND videography!
Thanks Mac!
Fantastic.! I was just about to research making a cider press! I love the stuff, and I get about 5% alcohol by volume in a week, using champagne/cider brewer’s yeast.
Nice one. Mrservecool once made a wooden press at the beginning of his cider hobby. It didn't hold up, so he had to make one out of steel.
lot's of good techniques...
If it's clear and yella, you got juice there, fella! If it's cloudy and brown, you're in cider town!
I almost forgot you were a wood worker with all the fabrication videos lately.
+ringerson4x4 me too
Great video Matt!
Thanks!
Such a cool project man!
Thanks Andy!
Very cool build. You make it look so easy
Nice incorporation of Triton
Awesome. Going on the build list for sure.
Thanks!
This is awesome. Makes me want some cider.
Thanks Brian!
Amazing craftsmanship. Thanks!
That thing is massive!
that's what she said?
Awesome piece Matt!
Great work Matt!.
Great video Matt! I want some apple cider now...
Thanks Matt!
good stuff matt! my uncle would love this thing! might have to buy him the plans
Thanks Joe!
Matthew Cremona ALWAYS!!🖒🖒
It looks incredible!
+Mark Huigen thanks Mark!
Glad to see my jointer isn't the only one where the shield doesn't retract and cover the blades when it's pushed out of the way haha
haha I haven't realigned the spring still
I tried but won't stay in place anymore, need to call grizzly and see what to do. Kind of scary when running wood across with it opened up that's for sure.
So cool. That was a lot of work my friend!
Thanks Guy!
Really great video Matt, many thanks.
Thanks!
Been waiting for this Matt! Great timing with the season.
Thanks Frank!
That's massive!! awesome!
genial. muy claro y didactico
Awesome job Matt!
Thanks Fred!
Well done. you are really good at this content creating.
Thanks!
I like how you laugh when you tested it to it's limit. Haha.
Destroying my projects doesn't even phase me haha
Nice Matt i didn't know how they made apple juice, one day i may make this if i get a farm....lol.
imPRESSive build Matt! :P
oh boy...
Nice project.
Really cool build Matt. I bet that thing weighs more than you! :)
Nice project
It saddens me that I only have one thumbs up for this video, I wish I could have given it three.
I have never used a bar top finish, what was the torch used for?
Thanks again for making this Matt, great build. I just put in a dozen apple trees, that gives me about 5 years to get one made for myself! LOL.
I think he uses the torch to get rid of the bubbles that tend to form in epoxy.
gorgeous build!
+Greg Baer thanks!
Really nice job!!! Thanks!!!
thanks!
Very well done Matt. I don't need one, but somehow, I want to build one :)
I don't have a need for an apple press, but I can see this being used as a medieval torture device... or a Halloween decoration... or both! lol
Thanks Dave! Pretty festive!
That is a really cool project... would be really expensive to buy all the wood required though..
Depends where you live. Around here the wood for the press would be around $150. Maybe you should move ;)
Matthew Cremona lol, I moved out west because I really don't like snow.. here there is about a couple weeks of shovelling snow per winter... oak I guess here would be close to double that...
glad to see I'm not the only one that uses a jig saw for random stuff like that lol.
lol it comes in pretty handy
Nice build!
Thanks Leo!
I've enjoyed it, very interesting project to do it. Cheers!
Thanks!
Well done.
That is really cool!
Thanks!
4 stars just for not adding a background annoying music, machinery sounds are more relaxing
Thanks!
Good thing you had that x-carve. Marking and drilling all those holes for that jig by hand would have been really annoying...
+krtwood could you even imagine? Who would be that crazy
very cool!
Thanks Scott!
What are your thoughts about finishes and food safety?
Finishes are inert once cured
Awesome video! I'd be very interested in doing a quick structural analysis of this for a video, what are your thoughts? Show what the height of that top bit that broke off should have been?
awesome
Will the epoxy finish stay waterproof? Wood changes and cracks. Many aspects of your design rely on the fact that wood stays sealed. For example I would be worried if those racks will not come apart after few seasons.
awsome job, it looks beautiful but its so large that even the enthusiast wood worker is unlikely to have the required equipment
Nice build,
I wish I had all those tools. =P
Man, this makes me really wish I had some apple trees.
I think I need some too now
Matt, what have been your impressions of the triton track saw? Have you been really pleased with the cuts?
Great build. Jealous of your shop, would take me 30 years to afford all that. ;)
Awesome
Thanks!
Nice edit job Matt!! Ron, Littlewierdshop
Thanks Ron!
wow i got make one of these
Go for it!
Cutting boards need lovin too
Thank you for this great info. One question, when you guys were pressing the apples, what kind of cloth were you using to wrap the apple pulp in?
Good work Matt! Are you going to ferment any of that juice?
The Demetri Martin of Woodworking
good video ... I'm doing a similar pres.
Tell me for a jack of 5 tons of oak beams in size 100x100 will be enough? and the upper beam 100x200?
We should make brandy with that...Or should we?
Wow, what a great piece and a great video! Thank you so much. Building something like this is one of my dreams :D
I guess the oak was from your own milling? And was the press for a client or for yourself? :)
Yea now i want apple juice, and apple sauce...maybe some hard apple cider....lol.....press looks great.....on to the other video.....oh yea forgot apple butter for my pancakes.......lol
Damn Matt!! The floor is so clean!! Did you upgrade the shop or did I miss a Shop update video!!
Hey Matt. Great Video :-) what type of glue did you use for gluing up the lattices? is it water resistant, or just normal wood glue?
That thing is BURLY!
hi !!! Tell me please, what glue did you use for gluing the gratings? how long can these grids last? will the juice not corrode the glue?
Hi Matt, in this video you mention going from jointer to planer to square off your stock. Do you have to use a planer? Or could this be done on your jointer? Thanks in advance regards Geoff ( I love your channel )
How many hours of labour?
whats the dimensions on the press cloth?
What kind of glue and I couldnt understand what kind of finish you said you put on
did you get a new table saw? i see in some shots the rigid is gone and then there's what looks like a sawstop in other shots
tranceformer110 Sawstops are pretty sawsome.
Quick question. Is Epoxy food safe? If Yes, I have some use here with my old projects.
For your jig to make the lattice... couldn't you have done just the perimeter dowels?
+Jason _ maybe. I wanted to make sure that under pressure they didn't slide around and I wanted to know exactly where to apply glue so I didn't have to deal with cleaning up glue between the slats
Good point... I guess it's attention to detail lol I would've gone the easy way haha
May have to build one now .... Lol
please do :)
Hi, Matt. How much of pressure your jack can create? I use 2,5 t pressure jack.
I'm surprised to see you using a jig saw to cross cut your long stock instead of a "skill" saw type. Why did you choose the jig saw?
Surprised that no puns were present in either of the Apple Press videos, very im-press-ive!
oh no....
This is one of the juiciest comments I've seen in a long time. haha
Thanks! I wasn't sure if it was ripe enough.
Think you might do any yosegi type segmented lamination now that you have a press like this? Got any non-apple-pressing ideas?
Maybe not that crazy but I was thinking it would be helpful for simple segmented bowl blanks or veneering. Maybe if I ever need to press some bearings onto a shaft.
I'm redoing all the oak cider press frame and juice box on family press. What would you recommend for a finish so apple juice doesn't taste funny or is bad for us. The box stores haven't been very helpful on this.
John McBride Osmo claims to have the only FDA approved food grade finish I think
great video matt, i really like that oak you used, i did notice you have your logo on everything, is it that easy to forget who you are....LOL....well if for some reason you need a reminder, let me know, :)...;)
I can barely remember what I did yesterday :)
wouldn't it be great if you made the press out of apple tree wood it be like using and apple tree to make apple cider
That would be rather awesome. You'd have to find some decent sized apple trees for that though.
Thanks for making me thirsty.
no problem!
CZcams comments, so thirsty
I heard a lot about your makita mitter saw. Is it good?
