I had to pause the video to tell you how happy the expression “flat as a flitter” made me. My grandmother was the only person I have ever heard use that phrase and she passed away in 1984. I’m enjoying your cane videos and learning much about the process. I have wondered for years if I could grow some and make the syrup on a very small home scale. Where I live now it isn’t always easy to find the good stuff and sometimes on a cold day you just gotta have some cornbread and molasses. Seeing your demo with the board shows me that I can figure out a way do it one of these days.

Praying yunz are all right. Its been a long time and we are worried about you and your family. God is with you and pray to see yunz all soon. God's blessing to you and yours

Fun Fact Fridays are simply awesome!!! It's because in this day and time, facts are hard to come by ... Really interesting Justro. Thanks for taking us along.

Glad you and the girls are on the mend. Thank you for the cane mill instructions, I like the music it makes as the gears turn. Take care of yourself and I look forward to your next video!

Said a prayer for y’all today. Hoping all is well.❤️🙏

I so enjoy getting to watch your “adventures” Justro:) I can’t get enough of the old stories either.

Mmmm! Good things to come! Love & Prayers for healing and wellness!❤❤🙏🙏

Sending you and family prayers and blessings.

Justro, I sure did like this video today. I enjoyed seeing how the cane mill works. I had never seen this process before! Make sure Bear gets an extra treat tonight for the long day of guarding he put in today! I love Bear! Praying you and girls are back to 100% very soon!

Happy Thanksgiving, we miss you.

Enjoyed this one Justro, I love watching this process of how things use to be done and I’m so glad that you are keeping this practice alive today. I love hearing about your old stories from days gone by. I’m so glad you and the girls are feeling better, we will continue to pray for y’all’s complete healing. GOD BLESS YALL 😇🙏🏻😇🙏🏻🙌🏻👍🏻❤️

Praying for you and your girls. Miss your videos so very much. Hope all is well and we will see Y'all's smiling faces on here soon. You are a blessing in my life and I thank God for you. I know He is guiding your footsteps. 🙏💜🙏

Woot Woot Chattanooga 44!!! I am so glad I found your channel, my world is a simpler place watching it through your videos, Thank you for sharing your life, family history and Appalachia with us. So happy you guys are getting better. Don’t over do it and relapse. Yes let me know when I can meet up to get sorghum.

Hope you all are well. Look everyday for your videos. Take care.

Praying that you and your girls are all well.

So interesting. Thank You , Justro ! Hope you & the girls get to feeling better very soon.

I can imagine you needeing lots of lubricant for those gears. You actually just talked about a reservoir that helps them gesrs run smooth. I could watch you squeeze cane all day.

Great old mill , I hope you and the girls are feeling a lot better soon.

I’m so sorry y’all have been sick, I’ll pray for Gods healing hand upon each of you 🙏🏻 I’m certainly glad your safe from any threats out there, Bear looks like he will be all rested up if he needs to defend you 🤣🤣 But you sure make me nervous trying to film that running equipment, moving around and pointing out the workings ……..be careful !!!! I’m grateful you have permapasture farms so close and y’all can help each other ! As always, great video and wonderful to see that beautiful smile ! Blessings

Thanks brother! The brûlée was yummy! We would love to help with the sorghum next time. Glad you are all feeling better. Let us know if you need anything. 😊

Hey we sure miss you! Hope all is well! 🙏

I hope you are all okay. Thanks for the video Justro. God bless.

I’m glad you and your girls are feeling better. I enjoyed the video-take care-God bless! 😊

Man you are high-tech, all I’ve ever seen make sorghum is the use of mules. But then again I don’t get out much…. lol. That is a slick machine!!

Another good one can’t wait try the finished product . Hope y’all all get to feeling better soon . Have a blessed weekend.

So sorry y'all have been sick. Glad y'all are on the mends. Looking forward to the making sorghum syrup video. Y'all take care and God bless.

I love watching the Amish in scottsville ky making sorghum with a press like yours and four teams of horses running it everything is gravity flow all the way to a jars

Flat as a Flitter! Haven't heard that one in a few years.....Justro, I never realized just how similar pressing sorghum was to squeezing sugar cane. We have a vertical cane press and use an antique tractor to drive the press. We love spending a full day every February making cane syrup. Blessings to you! Thanks for sharing.

Glad you are feeling better all of you. Great video

I pray everyone is ok. I can’t find any Facebook or messenger things. Praying all is well.

Howdy Justro- I sure like your setup there. I wish I could be there to help you get this done. All I would want is some cornbread to put some lasses on lol. Hope y’all have a great weekend. God bless

"Facts as far as hens teeth!".. cracked me up.

Howdy Justro, glad you and the girls are on the mend. Been some puny folks down this way too. I hope you got to eat on one of those big fat chickens Billy fixed up the other day. Don't worry bout not getting out videos while you're busy or under the weather. Anybody gives you any lip just send em down here, I'll fix it. Love you guys!

Wow I’ve never seen anything like that! Your one smart cookie! I think definitely keep your finger and hair back 🫶🏼

Love your guard dog!!!! Made me smile.

What is a joy to hang out with you bro!

Know y’all have been sick, hope you all are feeling better. Missing your posts.

Hoping you all are okay. We've missed your videos.

Glad you're doing better.Tell the girls hi... Enjoyed the video.

I love your videos of all the history you share I will keep you and your daughters In my prayers to get better . My oldest daughter makes homemade maple syrup which is alot different from the syrup you do it's so exciting watching all the hard work you do when showing us how you do sugar cane but great results thank you for sharing, take care stay safe and God bless

I enjoyed watching this. I have never seen that before🌻

We did maple syrup back on the farm and cold nights ice would form in the sap buckets -- the ice was pure water increasing sugar content of what remained. You might experiment with taking your sorghum juice and partially freezing it to remove the ice block before spending all day boiling. Let that ice block melt out and recheck your brix from the ice water and the remaining juice to see if it helps.

Thanks for sharing Justro 🙏 😎 🏖 🏝

I was missing you and the girls so praying a lot because I was afraid you were all sick you sound better.

Thanks for another great video! Always enjoy them.

That's awesome! Looks fun! Thanks for sharing!

Happy Thanksgiving to ya and yr girls. Enjoy. Yes feel better. Hugs

I remember my granddaddy giving me a piece of sugar cane to chew on. I am pretty sure he was disappointed that I did not love it like he did. I was too used to the refined white sugar to appreciate the flavor from the cane juice.

Listenen to this has brought up alot of memorys i thought was gone

Got one fur ya its as funny as a hen with theeth here goes .your as cute as a Roster wearing socks lol

Great video! Take care of that cold!

Justro, everyone makes mistakes, I’m praying that you will do what’s right, be a man and confess, the Lord is on your side.

Have a blessed day. Thanks for sharing. Hollar can you hear me 🤣❤️🙏

Happy Thanksgiving to you and the kids

I have been missing you…lease let us hear from you…love your girls and love you Justin ❤️

Oh yum! Fresh sorghum syrup, ain’t nothing better! Justin, you’re videos and knowledge are wonderful, always enjoy the old time way. I wanna try to make hominy corn, do you have a video on how to?

sorry you and the girls have sick get well soon

It was my turn to wonder where you were. Suggestion? Maybe everybody starts taking garlic..laying canes loosing water means less cooking😄

Are you all well? We miss seeing you on KZfaq 😢

You alright Justro? You ain't put nothing out in a couple wks!

Thanks for the video. I love simple machines that do a great job. I hate think what that press would look like if OSHA got a holt to it.

Enjoyed this!

I thought about trying to get up with you when you started doing this but as usual I'm always late. I would love to help ya do that and talk about how things use to be. I would like to buy some and I would pick it up. Yuns have a goodun

Ok I'm nosy..you r only doing 2 videos a month? Are you all ok? Still sick? Blessings!

Awesome info nice setup BRO!!!!!!!

This fascinates me!

Let’s get to pumping out the mills damn it!!!!!

We use to cut sections of the cane and peel it and chew on the sweet pulp, 😋

Sweet!

That is fascinating Justin. I bet some ole farmers lost some digits back in the day working on one of those with the exposed gears like that. Is the juice good enough to drink fresh like that? It appears like it would be good. The verticle cane mills is the only one I have ever seen. I am like you, I like this horizontal one as you have.

Do you know of any cane mills available up there every one I've found over here hasn't been touched for decades and not gonna be touched for decades. Tore down my meadows today. Not as bad as I thought the main shaft is gonna need some work . All new babits will have to be poured, it's been ran dry and what grease was in them was hard as plastic.

nice video! I wonder if some food grade grease would help them gears run smoother and last longer?

Anyone know what happened to Justro?

I think 🤔 my KZfaq has got a hole in it, comments are leaking out.I like the mill Justro, Thanks and God Bless 🙂.

Here in Phoenix I grew sugar cane this summer. It was in a raised bed that gets watered.. it started off with a few green twigs I got from Amazon and grew to way over 10 ft clump about 2 ft found. At least 30 tall canes. I finally cut it a couple weeks ago ( in my climate it never really stops growing but it was getting so big and older canes were turning brown) I tried to taste it but didn't really find it very sweet, so should I do something different to get sweet? (I did hear to leave canes lay to get sweeter but not very practical in my yard) I grew for fun and now I'm leaving a few pieces to root in water to replant in a different spot for next year, but without a machine to squeeze it I'm not sure how I can process it. This year it all went into the trash.. so sad.. but the crushers I've seen on Amazon are just too expensive and overkill for my small simple use, anyone have alternatives?

The leftover canes would be good for pigs and compost, wouldn’t it?

And you can wring out your laundry! 🤣😂🤣

How often do you add oil in the bearing holes? How much and what weight?

been looking for a mill all year and havent had any luck

Justin may God remove your stumbling blocks and hard times. I know the mill will put you in the goodwill and gratitude of 🍎@🐑 forever. The amount of people you are about to help like a warrior is immeasurable.✝️🙏✌️😎👍

Good morning. I am a small farm. My cane field/patch is small. I'm looking for a press. I ordered a cheap one, broke 1 use. Sent that China made one back. Bad mistake. Can you recommend an inexpensive alternative? Hope you and the girls get better soon.

Irememberwellhelping cut cain
