Ok, when I go to the brew store, I'll be sure to ask the guy what kind of yeast to get for cider. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! Sounds like cider is the way to go for now. I already have the Mr Beer, so I'll give it a whirl and see how it works. I'm going to use my own fresh yeast instead of theirs, so hopefully that will avoid any problems. *fingers crossed*

I'm planning on using Mr Beer, a single fermenter system, to make both cider and mead. I've never brewed anything before, so I'm wondering which would be simpler and less likely for me to screw up, and also which would work better without the second fermenter. Thanks for any tips!
