I plan to start a 2.5 gallon batch of cider this evening using the Graham's English Cider recipe:

I have some questions about my 2.5 gallon recipe:
* I am using EC1118 yeast. Should I pitch one full yeast packet if I am doing half the total of the OP's recipe? Will that extra yeast create any issues?
* Should I cut the lemon and tea in half as well?
* I don't have any yeast nutrient, is this a problem? Can I just pitch the yeast directly into the primary?
