Today I went to a cider press party. They had two presses- one using bike power that was made of wood, and one press that was over a hundred years old, and was a lot better and faster than the former. The fresh cider itself was great, although it had a few gnats in it. I had mostly apple cider, which was made from apples that people had collected from trees or from college cafeterias. There was also another fruit used. We think it is very likely that those were crab apples(a girl from Korea noted that they call crab apples flower apples in Korea) , but some people think they might have been muscadine grapes. Because of the red color of the fruit, I am going with the crab apples hypothesis.
