Beginner cider advice

[Agentgonzo]

I'm going to join a friend making cider from his tree on Saturday. I've never done cider before, and neither has he.
He's got this kit https://www.brewbitz.com/products/home-made-cider-starter-package-10-litres.
Without going over the top, what else has he missed (he has a scratter/press etc). Is it worth chucking cheap yeast from the kit and getting something from CML etc? Is it worth adding yeast nutrient? Sodium Metabisulphate etc?

yes add nutrient . wine and beer yeast dont like cider must. i have had better results with nutrient then without. thats a nice kit btw. it says it has nutrient and cider yeast so i would keep that.
