Generally from what Ive been told you want to ferment cider between 60 and 75 but closer to 60. Im using EC-1118 champaine yeast. can it be fermented at a cooler temp? say around 55 degrees?
 
It all depends on the yeast, determine the range the yeast can operate in and stick to that.

EC-1118's range is gigantic, but optimal is between 59-77. You can probably ferment at 55, it will just move slowly.
