This method of making cider is super interesting and looks like something I'll experiment with. I just finished up some pear wine. Its been in secondary for about 2 months. I plan on using a pear variety that has a short season and its hard to find any other time of year. I'm thinking of buying enough fruit to make 6 or so gallons but I don't want to make it all at once. Have you ever frozen fruit or fruit juice so you could have more iterations throughout the year? I'm thinking of just throwing pounds of whole pears into a deep freezer so I can pull them out, press them, and iterate with different techniques and ingredients throughout the year. Ever heard of anything like this? Does it work? Is it better to freeze the juice instead?
