Hi Chaps we all got there in the end thanks to your help and directions and for your beers looking forward to sampling them.
I saw myself the apples come off the truck this morning at 9, tipped into pulper and into massive Hydaulic press and will the last delivery at 11 tonight it doesn't get any fresher and for proper cider you need to start within that time frame.
Just to let you know what we got was 90% Dabinette and 10% Bramley, to bring up PH I guess and give it more of an edge.
I feel we got a great group deal here considering the quality of base ingredients and best of all supporting an Irish producer in what was a terrible year for growing apples.
Thanks to Jacob and Will for the stats, the PH and OG are just where we want them.
I am really looking forward to this one, and please keep posting as to how your cider is turning out.

Thanks for organising this John. I've pressed my own juice in the past, so I appreciate the effort that this buy has saved us. I also appreciate the cost, as I had considered buying juice from David Llewellyn, and it was expensive and difficult for me to collect.

I've nothing in bottles at the moment, as otherwise would have left you something, but will try and sort you out in the future. Any interest in hop plants?

Dabinette is one of the very few cider apples recommended for a single variety cider. As its low in acid they blend in some Bramleys.

The one thing I realised knocking out that cider is that all on NHC are really a decent bunch of folks 

Very much interested in growing hops for 2013,  happy to drop again as part of a group buy if required!
