The appliance of science?

Thinking on today (it's a dangerous pursuit but all you can do when dressing apples repeatedly) - it's the 'scientific approach' that has led us down the industrial cider path...
Keep it stupid simple I say. I read earlier today that cider making is very complicated... well it isn't, and never was. It's as complicated as you want to make it. The slippery slope of sulphite...
It's a tad disheartening to sample 'craft ciders' that should never have left the cider house, perhaps made by those who seek complication..? Of course I don't know the half of it... only been making it since 1976 - cheers - dash! glass is empty...
