The Fruit and Garden Association of Heideck is scheduling appointments for the pressing of apples, with a view to producing fresh and flavourful apple juice. The appointment scheduling is available from Monday to Saturday, between 8 and 9 AM, and between 5:30 and 7:30 PM.
To schedule an appointment, simply give Xaver Fiegl a call at (09177) 1870. When you call, please provide an accurate estimate of the quantity of apples you have. It is essential that only pristine fruit is accepted for processing to ensure the best possible flavour and to prevent mold formation.
The juice production process will make use of the Bag in Box (BIB) method, a popular choice in the food and beverage industry for its ease of transport, storage, and use. This method involves filling a collapsible bag with juice, which is then placed inside a box. The bag is made of aseptic material to prevent contamination, and the packaging process ensures that the juice remains sterile and fresh for a longer period.
During the filling process, a 2-3% headspace is maintained to allow for expansion and prevent bag rupture during storage or transportation. The BIB system is suitable for both concentrated and non-concentrated apple juices, offering an efficient way to handle large volumes of product. Modern processing lines often integrate the BIB system with full automation, starting from fruit unloading to final packaging, ensuring streamlined production.
The apple juice produced by the Fruit and Garden Association of Heideck is for the production of apple juice, and it is important to note that using dirty or rotten apples can impair the flavour and lead to mold formation. So, please ensure that your apples are clean and in good condition before bringing them for processing.
With the Bag in Box method, the apple juice can be bottled for your convenience. So, if you have a surplus of apples and are looking to produce your own apple juice, consider scheduling an appointment with the Fruit and Garden Association of Heideck today.
