I just picked some homegrown pears i plan to press and mix with my apples for cider. I've read that:
- the pears should be ripened some to produce the best flavor for cider
- the pears will be over ripe after a week
- the pears will not ripen properly unless exposed to temps around 30*F
- the pears will produce more juice if frozen
