## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for ginger ale? Recipe calls for champagne yeast**
A: If your recipe calls for champagne yeast then this will work, although I have never used it for making anything other than Mead.

**Q: can i use 1 packet for a gallon of apple cider?**
A: Yes 1 packet is more then enough for 1 gallon of cider. Keep in mind it will be very dry and more like a wine when it's done fermenting.

A: I use it for mead, use champagne bottles or the cork pops out.
