What happens here
Transfer the apple pomace from the collection bucket into the filter-lined basket of the fruit press. Once the basket is filled, place the press's lid on top of the pomace. Begin turning the screw mechanism of the press, slowly and steadily, to apply pressure. Observe as the fresh apple juice begins to flow out of the press's spout and into the designated collection bucket below. Continue applying pressure until the flow of juice significantly slows. This step is repeated for multiple batches until all pomace has been pressed.
Goal: Extract juice from the apple pomace.
