[QUOTE="Richard Devon, post: 3070544, member: 5397"] So I have been thinking about dabbling in making cider. Firstly to plant some trees in an old orchard area which was scrubbed out about 20 years ago, its a nice sunny spot and would be good to return it to original. First question can anyone suggest a supplier of saplings and which varieties would you recommend?...reading up about it they suggest adding some cooking/eating varieties to help with pollination. In the meantime (10 years) I was thinking about dabbling in pressing out some apples and make some. I know where there's a press and pulper going, so just a case of getting a tonne(?) of apples.....anyone know someone in the west-country who sells them? Next thing, roughly how many litres will a tonne of apples make and how do i guard against getting a tank full of stuff more akin to vinegar than cider? [/QUOTE]
