For larger quantities I cut the
branches to fit our apple press. Got about 70% yield in juice. Previously, trying
the freeze and shake methods took 10 times longer. My Fruit Science class made wine
from it one year with the help of someone who often makes fruit wines…quite
a hassle to skim off all the oil. It was very high acid. We added
a ‘maximum amount of chalk’ and the pH was still too low. So
we added banana. The juice before fermentation was
wonderful. Quite the tropical punch! When bottled it seemed to have
lost most of the aromatics. I shoved it in the basement and
forgot about it for almost 2 years. 2 years later it seemed to have
improved greatly in flavour. I’ve often thought that the
remains of squished seabuckthorn berries and branches would make excellent
animal fodder. I’ll bet if you fed it to
chickens you’d get super orange yolks that would beat any omega-3 eggs in
the grocery store! Dr.

frozen seaberries? I cut the branches with ripe berries into small enough
pieces to fit into a covered plastic tub, put it in the freezer, and then shook
it vigorously before the berries defrosted. I now have a couple of quarts of
berries cleaned of most leaves, stems, and other debris. Lee Reich, PhD Books by Lee Reich: A Northeast Gardener's Year The Pruning Book Weedless Gardening Uncommon Fruits for Every Garden Landscaping with Fruit |
