I was alarmed to discover that the last pot of the late Strangelove Mater's chutney had made a valiant attempt to eat its way through the lid of the jar & escape.
I took pity on it & consigned it to the compost heap where it's eaten lots & lots of nice things.

You can blend cookers & eaters to make cider. Won't be as good as Dabinett, etc, but will give you a reasonable output.

We only have cookers and crabs so my cider press sits covered in spiders. Planted some cider varieties but they are slow growers.
A local landlord has started cider-making so likewise we may be donating apples.

Sadly ours are the only apple trees remaining in the close and I suspect that they will go too once we leave the property.

Nice! I hope to be joining you in a couple of years, planted some fruit trees this year but will take a year or two to fruit (apple, pear, plum and cherry).
Are the apples eaters or bakers?
Oh, what to you store it in, and if jars, how do you get enough?

Giving away apples currently, while contemplating getting the cider press out.
