Substitute Yeasts

Mangrove Jack's M08 Premium Cider is a clean, highly attenuative alternative. Gervin GV3 is another robust option that is also suitable for cider.


Cidermaker's Tip

Pectic enzyme can be useful for breaking down pectin and helping juice extraction or clarification, but it does not make the yeast itself more attenuative.
