I think it's critical to let this pie sit for several hours, preferably overnight, before serving. I had a piece a few hours after baking, when it was still barely warm, and I didn't like it much; the flavor was too biting and acidic. But today, now that it is absolutely, completely cooled (and very nicely firmed up), the flavor is full, but milder, and so much better. I doubled the filling recipe for my big, very deep pie dish, and it worked great. I also substituted tapioca for the flour.
