Hard apple cider

Thanks, much appreciated.

I should probably spend the few bucks on the bottling bucket when it becomes time.

The "brand" yeast I bought was LALVIN. The yeast number is EC-1118, and does denote it's for sparkling wine.

I am going to call my local place in the morning and see if they can order in the proper yeast for me. With other local vendors (auto parts, sporting goods, etc.) I've found that a lot of times they can get stuff way quicker than me, and I don't have to pay shipping. I like to keep my money local, so i prefer to deal locally instead of online vendors. Of course, there are situations where that's an impossibility, and maybe this is one of those cases.

I'll do some more digging to see if I can find the numbers of the cider yeasts you are referring to.
