Ued too much first time, Brew way yeasty and very dry but I drank it anyway and it carries a punch. Bought WTEAST specifically designed for Hard Cider. It flopped miserably and I am redoing it using the LALVIN EC1118. The brew is bubbeling along quiet well with added nutriants and additional sugar. As for me and my house I will stay with LALVIN EC1118 because it works, or at least so far it does. I make my batches in one gallong containers. Large batching just dosen't work for me for some reason and brewers cant seem to tell me why. I believe the WYEAST was bad. I will try white labs for cider in the future to see how it does, but LALVIN ec 1118 seems to work o.k. Experimentation will reveal the truth. I use 1.5 grams per gallon with 8 tablespoons of bakers super refined sugar. I use to wild ferment and that never gave any punch, just made it bubbely. Just remember when you get a finished product it will not taste like apple cider but more like a dry wine. I will continue to keep LALVIN on hand as a back up or as a permanent starter. Review: Works quickly for me - This is one of my go to yeasts. For me It dissolves well in water with no clumping. It begins to ferment quickly. I think it is one of the fastest yeast to finish. ## Features - Recommended for all types of wine, including sparkling wine, late harvest, and cider - May also be used to restart stuck fermentations - Model Number: EC-1118B - Country Of Origin: Canada ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002LQBSIO | | Age Range Description | 18+ | | Best Sellers Rank | #101,239 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #50 in Winemaking Yeasts & Cultures | | Brand | Lallemand Inc | | Brand Name | Lallemand Inc | | Coin Variety 1 | Yeast | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 553 Reviews | | Included Components | Yeast | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Package Quantity | 1 | | Item Package Weight | 0.02 kg | | Item Type Name | beverages | | Item Weight | 13.61 g | | Leavening Agent Type | Active Dry Yeast | | Manufacturer | Home Brew Stuff | | Model Number | EC-1118B | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | EC-1118B | | Set Name | Lallemand Inc Active Dry Yeast for Beverages | | Size | 0.18 Count (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | Vegan | | UPC | 786173760599 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Lallemand Inc - **Item Form:** Powder - **Item Package Quantity:** 1 - **Item Weight:** 13.61 g - **Number of Items:** 1 ## Images ![Lallemand Inc EC-1118B Lalvin Yeast - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811krbQYinL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: How much wine will one packet make?** A: six gallon wine batch is the largest I've used it in so far. normally I use it for high gravity mead in a five gallon batches 1 gallon honey 4 gallons water, comes in at 18-21% **Q: how much cider can you make** A: I have not used this for making cider, but it will make 5-6 gallons of wine from concentrate. Example: mix 10# sugar in about a gallon of hot water to desolve, 10 cans of Old Orchard Frozen Grape Juice Concentrate (thawed to room temp), enough water to bring up to the bottom of the neck on a six gallon Carboy. Add one pack of yeast and a bleeder hose. When heavy foaming stops in a few days, top up the water to the previous level and add an airlock. Wait until you can read newsprint through the container. **Q: My estimated delivery date for this item says its over a month from now. Will it really take that long?** A: I can't really answer that question without knowing where we would be sending it but I would guess much quicker. We ship same day from 44870 so you can go to the USPS website and check delivery times from there. **Q: Is this yeast sensitive to heat / temperature that is a problem when it is shipped? At the brewing supply store it's refrigerated.** A: I've used this several times with great success. Never had a problem due to it not being frefrigerated during shipment. I store it in my fridge, when not in use, but it works great every time. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LALVIN Yeast *by T***M on November 7, 2012* First time using yeast to make hard cider.
