Just a simple post to compare both yeasts. Please share any pros or cons (or both) for each yeast.
I just finished my first batch of 2.5 gallons (starting off with low amounts as I test ingredients out) with Côte des Blancs. It did leave a buttery taste to the Cider (and a strong taste of yeast). Not sure I would use Côte des Blancs again. The first batch is currently undergoing bottle carbonation, I am hoping that helps a bit with the taste.
Will experiment with Safale S-04 next as I hear this leave more of an Apple taste to the Cider.
