[Ansteorra] Cider yeast

[Lucia Piazetta]

Greetings Dore!
English style ale yeasts work well for ciders, and I've had a few  
recommended by the homebrew shops that worked well.  Wyeast has one  
called "London III", which I have used a lot.  I think it is now only  
available in a "smack pack", which I'm not overly fond of.   I  
recently switched to a dry yeast I like a lot better for ciders by  
Danstar called "Nottingham".  I think the cider tastes better and  
less yeasty.  Lots of fruity overtones, and a pretty quick fermenter.
