So i went out and got all the ingredients to make 5 gallons of my cider recipe only to get home and then realize i was out of my go to cider yeast( Lalvin 71B-1122 Narbonne White Wine Yeast). The only yeast i have on hand is s-04. My question is if i use the s-04 will it go dry. My only concern is that ive read a few places that it with stop short in cider sometimes leaving some sugar behind. If it does will i still be able to bottle carb?, or would the yeast be done and not carb the added sugar or would fermentation possibly kick back up and potentially eat all the remaining sugar and cause over carbonation/bottle bombs. Ive made many batches of cider before but always used a wine yeast and always got to 1.000 or lower. Any insight would be appreciated.
