Default Peary additives. What's yours?

For those that do any Pear cider, I just sqeezed about 10 gallons of bartletts. I may go with heavy honey concentration on one for a cyser.

Last year, I did about 5 gallons, while nice, pears are simply a mellow fruit and looking for ways to bring out more flavor of the pear or at least more flavor in general to the final product.

Cinnamon sticks?

Vanilla and dried Blueberries.
I don't use enough of the blueberries to color up the batch...but I feel like they bring a little body and something "Interesting" to the party.

That's a nice idea, thanks Kahuna.

Do you use beans or extract? and roughly how many lb's of blueberries?

Beans Beans the Magical Fruit...well I guess it isn't a fruit....1" of bean per gallon and about 20 dried Blueberries. They are like raisins...but cooler!
