Thinking of trying to add some spices (cinnamon and nutmeg mostly) to my cider. I'm having these thoughts after the cider has been fermenting for about a week, so I probably should have thought of this sooner and added them at the beginning. That said, is it too late to add some spices and either put it into a secondary for a bit, or right before I bottle? Will that do anything to the flavor, or is it too late for that?
Also, if it would still work to add some spices, how much should I add?
And, if I'm not backsweetening I don't need to pasteurize the bottles right?
