There is a handy little crank strainer that we use making applesauce,
applebutter, etc.  I love it.  We wash and quarter the apples.  Then we stew them
in plain water until they are all soft.  Put them through the strainer 3 cups at
a time.  It's a snap.  What you would want to do is then put the solids you got
through a fine strainer to seperate the juice, and use the solids for something
else.  Check with your friends who can applesauce to borrow one.
