2,000 to 3,000 Gallons of Apple Cider Was Turned out Per Day. One Of

6 A few of the cul1 apples were fed to hogs but many were hauled to Cider Mil1s to be made into apple cider or cider vinegar. At Drnlap Cider Mill in Flora in 1926, 2,000 to 3,000 gallons of apple cider was turned out per day. one of the o1d buildings which was once a part of the Cirler Mill is stil1 standing on the back lot of the Flora Lumber Company. Part of the o1d Cider I.4iI1 in Flora Some cider was pumped into large wooden tanks, some 10 or j.2 feet across and 12 to 16 feet high- Around 18 or 20 tanks were used. After these tanks were well fi11ed, they were left to ferment into vinegar. The vinegar was then shipped to a bottling factory in wooden tank railroad cars. The part of the apple left, after the juice was squeezed out, was fed into a dry- er. This was a revolving cirum about 4 feet in diameter and 30 feet 1ong. Hot rlry airwas forced throught this and the pulp came out the other end, dry. This pulp, known as pectin' was sacked and shipped to a facLory where it r.rras sold under a brand name such as Certo, Sure-Je1 or the like, an ingredient used in making je11y. In a 1914, newspaper, we read where there were two cooper shops and three evap- orators, a vinegar factory and Cider Mill, a canning factory, several wholesale fruit firms, and a 35 ton rce and storage plant in the county. This ice plant which was Ehr Ice and Storage in F1ora, had bhe capacity to store 30,000 barrels of apples at once in cold storage. It is impossible to name all of the orchards that were in existence in Clay County in its heyday but l_et me just sdy, that in al1 probabiliby, one of your ancestors worked in or owned one of these orchards. Governor John R. Ianner, himself a one-time resident of Clay county, owned a large 80 acre orchard west of Louisvill-e. It was later worked by his son, J. Mack thnner. In a 7924 newspaper, we read where five or six young men, just. to have a ,good time', went to the col-. J., l(ack ranner orchard east of Flora, and tapped a 400 ga1- 35.

Some credit it with great therapeutic value but the taste alone convinces our family. When you compare the cost to store bought juices a great deal of money can be saved and you don’t have to worry about what chemicals and preservatives that might have been used.

It is still the most efficient and easiest to operate press on the market today. Even a child can easily turn the Grinder Wheel. Your family and friends will enjoy getting together for an afternoon of old time cider making. This fruit harvest season get in on the fun and excitement of tasting fresh made apple cider. Please take our catalog and go through it page by page. You’ll see that our presses are built solid with heavy cast Iron and steel parts.

Make and Enjoy Award Winning Sparkling Ciders
Make And Enjoy Award Winning Sparkling Ciders Presented by Martin Nygard and Bill Thornton At AWO Festival 2007 – Kitchener, June 9 2007 Making good quality apple cider is relatively easy and enjoying it is even easier. A number of AWO cider makers have had great success – and so can you!! AWO has only sent 2 ciders in each of the past two years to the Canadian championships. All four (by 4 different cider makers) were the only entries to be awarded medals (all silver or gold). Their techniques are quite similar and we will share these methods with you today. Our topic will focus on making ciders that meet the AWO class descriptions for ‘SPARKLING CIDER”, which include the following points: 1. apple based sparkling beverage between 5% and 8% alcohol (evidence of alcohol in nose or taste is a fault). 2. colour ranges from neutral to golden but not brown. 3. sparkle controlled and last at least 20 minutes with preference for fine bubbles. 4. may be presented on priming yeast but preference is for sparged bottles. (artificial carbonation is quite acceptable and commonly used) 5. safety requires glass beer bottles with crown cap, or plastic bottles with screw cap, or tins. (also accepted are champagne style bottles with wired down plastic stopper) 6. balance of sugar, acid and taste as expected in champagne or sparkling wine with no oxidation or harshness that is often found in apples. Sweetness optional but must be in balance with the preferred taste having distinct apple character. Some comments on these criteria: - it is allowable (often with positive effect) to add other fruit to add flavour and colour to the cider as long as the product is “apple based” and retains some “distinct apple character”.
