cider press
Orchard juice extractor
A cider press is a device for crushing apples and extracting their juice to make cider.
Traditional presses use a screw mechanism to apply pressure to crushed fruit held in cloth or slats.
The term evokes autumn harvests and farmhouse production: We took the kids to watch the cider press in action.
