cider mill

Orchard processing facility

A cider mill is a facility or device for pressing apples to extract their juice for cider.

Traditional cider mills use a grinding mechanism to crush apples into pulp, then a press to squeeze out the liquid.

In American usage, cider mills are often seasonal attractions where visitors can watch the process and buy fresh cider: We took the kids to the cider mill in October.
