Build a Rack and Cloth Apple (Cider) Press

  • 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!

    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!

    @WoodworkingBarcelona Před 7 lety +2

    Very interesting work Matt. I enjoy all the process. Best part IMHO is the jig you made for gluing up the racks. Regards!

    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!

    Beautiful workmanship. And yes, I have serious workshop envy!

  • @TobyKennedy
    @TobyKennedy Před 7 lety

    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.

    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.

  • @KKhhoorrnniittee
    @KKhhoorrnniittee Před 5 lety

    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.

    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.

    • @TheAtherion
      @TheAtherion Před 7 lety

      I think he uses the torch to get rid of the bubbles that tend to form in epoxy.

  • @HovingtonInstruments

    That is a really cool project... would be really expensive to buy all the wood required though..

    • @mcremona
      @mcremona  Před 7 lety

      Depends where you live. Around here the wood for the press would be around $150. Maybe you should move ;)

    • @HovingtonInstruments
      @HovingtonInstruments Před 7 lety

  • @janpospisilm
    @janpospisilm Před 7 měsíci

    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.

    For your jig to make the lattice... couldn't you have done just the perimeter dowels?

    • @mcremona
      @mcremona  Před 7 lety

      +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

    Think you might do any yosegi type segmented lamination now that you have a press like this? Got any non-apple-pressing ideas?

    • @mcremona
      @mcremona  Před 7 lety

      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.

  • @johnmcbride425
    @johnmcbride425 Před 7 lety

    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.
