Hi Jason, glad to hear you decided to invest in the kit. I'm really enjoying the new setup and just finished building a CNC enclosure to keep the chips and swarf from getting all over the garage. Another great resource for information is the CNC Fusion forum http://cncfusion.com/phpBB2/index.php. Michael is always willing to answer questions and there are some good posts about the kits and installation.

Awesome video, thanks!

Hi Derek, that's for catching the error. I have changed the links and they should be working properly. Both Happy Valley Apple Presses and Pleasant Hill Grains offer several styles of equipment, but honestly I bet you can build your own press just by looking at the images, at a fraction of their cost. Here is great a website about building a DIY apple grinder in case I forgot to put it in the article.

I have read similar findings about different metals imparting flavors into beer and ciders as they ferment. There is an excellent article on byo.com called Metallurgy for Homebrewers that should be helpful. Good luck!

Fantastic article, the illustrations are great. What program are you using to create the images?
