Hi
I am just about to try out making TC, I have the plastic demijohn, the apple juice and a sachet of champagne yeast.
Question is, how much of the sachet goes in? Its 11g and does 20 ltrs.
A pinch, or the whole lot!
Thanks
Matt

I would put it all in. I do think that less than all of it should work, if 11g does 20l then should be able to proportionately add less yeast. But I never have.
What I am doing is I have bought a tub (100g) of Young's dried active yeast (for winemaking and brewing it says on the side) to use on my fun or lower quality brewing adventures. I don't know what the quality is yet as I havent tried it but it must be more than adequate for tc and at about 1.50 for 100g much cheaper than throwing expensive yeast into it.
