I agree that the Atlas juicer does a fine job.  BUT it produces a turbid 
juice, which will not 
clear no matter how much one tries to clarify it (with finings etc.)  I 
suspect the garbage 
disposal will do the same thing.  As long as it doesn't matter that it isn't 
clear this is a very 
satisfactory solution, but if you are trying to make alcoholic beverage 
cyder, (which should be 
crystal clear), it poses a problem.
