Grapes are picked and destemmed.
The press is ready to take its maiden voyage.
 |
| A press made by Cider Bob from Elmira, Oregon |
Grapes go into the press box.
And the first grape juice comes out!
It's so pretty.
Tastes so good.
Can't wait to press some apples.
What a great birthday present!
Update:
This is Cider Bob, who is over 80, and his son Dan.
A family operation, they make about ten presses a month.
Signed and numbered,
working pieces of art.
We picked the press up at the shop in Elmira, OR.
Both Bob and Dan were there,
plus a granddaughter who was busy doing some finish work.
Lots of pride in the history of their company
and the high quality of their work.

That press is a piece of art!
