Revision as of 12:05, 22 September 2021

Some initial notes - We had frost in Spring, ruining the fruits from many blooming trees. Right now, it looks like this:

  • Freitag
    • moschtbire, maybe 4-5 trees
    • golden delicious, maybe 2 trees
    • zwetschgen, one tree.
  • Bentzelheim
    • berner rose, one tree
    • belle de boskoop, two trees

2021/09/17 harvest started. picked four crates of Boskoop at Bentzelheim.
2021/09/17 the shredder wasn't working, it was locked up hard, so I had to spend some time trying to fix it. I tried to remove the motor, but that seems difficult. I used some plant oil for lubrication.
2021/09/18 the shredder is working again, must have shaken loose whatever it was. Have to think about preventing this for next year. I'm guessing my high pressure cleaning will have forced some water into a bearing, where it rusted?
2021/09/18 have shredded and pressed 5 crates worth, looks like about 70litres of juice. It is delicious. The trester went into C1.
2021/09/20 16 x 2 litre pasteurised and bottled. Next time, fill up bottles first, then pasteurise nine bottles at a time.
2021/09/20 picked another crate of Boskoop. It's the typical situation now, without a storm, only few apples drop by themselves.

The two old presses

They were both sold in September, one at 49, the slightly bigger one at 100. Very good.
