coopers yeast

[ob111]

anyone used this in apple cider
the wine center I go to has two choices
coopers and EC-1118
so far I've only used the EC-1118
would using coopers make any difference?

oh oh with no replies I'm starting to worry

i find coopers doesn't attenuate as well as other yeasts in beer - so i assume in cider it will leave it sweeter than lavlin - which may be a good thing.
good luck

Here's a thread from a couple years ago about coopers yeast.

Seems like it would work fine in a cider, just watch the temp, a few mention diacetyl and esters over 68 degrees.
