The Homesteader places its Apple Eater grinder behind a single tub, so prepared fruit falls into the same tub used for pressing. It suits home orchards that want the hardwood construction and larger screw assembly of the American Harvester in a single-tub layout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoose the right setup for your harvest\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose the Homesteader for a single-tub workflow. Grind fruit into pulp, stop the grinder, then set up the pressing disk and screw for extraction.
