Apple mashing with garden shredder to make rough scrumpy Cider.

[HILUXCHAINSAW]

Do it!. It's the easiest and cheapest way i have found of mashing up apples. The first time i used it on apples i stripped it right down, blades and every thing metal coming. into contact with the apples, and gave it a good wire brushing. Now when i have finished mashing, i strip all the metal parts down and wash them again, then store them away somewhere safe in a tin filled with cooking oil. That way they don't rust, saves me having to wire brush the rust off next year.

first class thinking about getting one.

would have been interesting to have seen the finished mash.

@armadilopeter Imade another video called 'loading the cheeses on homemade scrumpy cider press'. If you search for that you will be able to see what it was like after it had been shredded. : )

Quality. Been wondering about doing same or sharpening a plasterers paddle and then running through the spin dryer (dryer is effective).

@Scooterandthebees The other good point about using a shredder is that what comes out is more like a pulp, there are no lumps of apple at all
