Mangrove Jack’s Premium Cider Yeast M08 – dry, clean cider
Mangrove Jack’s Craft Series Premium Cider Yeast M08 is a cider yeast for making a clean, crisp and dry cider where the fruit takes centre stage. It suits all types of cider, whether you use apple juice, pear juice or other fruit-based ingredients.
M08 is a low-sulphur strain with no detectable H₂S. This reduces the risk of sulphur notes, so the fruit aroma comes through more clearly. With very high attenuation and very high flocculation it gives a dry cider with a clean finish. The yeast suits both beginners and experienced cider makers.

Frequently asked questions about Mangrove Jack’s M08 cider yeast
How dry will the cider be?
With 95–100 % attenuation, M08 ferments out almost all the sugar and the cider will be dry. For a sweeter cider, sweeten with a non-fermentable sweetener or in the glass.
What does low sulphur production mean?
The yeast produces no detectable H₂S, which can otherwise smell of sulphur or rotten eggs. This lets the fruit aroma come through more clearly.
How much cider does one sachet treat?
One 9 g sachet is enough for up to 23 litres of cider.
How strong a cider can M08 ferment?
Its alcohol tolerance is 15 % ABV.
How long should the cider ferment?
Brewshop’s general advice for cider from fresh fruit is at least 6 weeks, preferably 8 or more, at a steady temperature. Check with a hydrometer that fermentation has finished before packaging.
