A bit of a bump. I have a bumper crop of crab apples and was thinking of making a cider. I mashed some and pressed the juice from the apples and it is pretty delicious on its own (I didn't even add any sugar), I am wondering what kind of equipment I would need to start turning this into some cider. A couple of other questions - do I need to pasteurize the juice? Also if I can't get around to making cider now - can I freeze the juice until I am ready or will that have an affect on the finished product?
