Hi as im new to this I decided to try making cider but being a novice I'm after putting in out of date yeast my question is can I now add good
yeast or is my project doomed
 
Moved your post here as it'll get more coverage. :thumb:

How "out of date" was your yeast?
 
Should be fine, may be a bit slow starting, but I doubt if it'll fail. When using out of date yeast it's better to make a starter with it first, just to check the viability of the yeast
