So most recipes Ive read for cyser reccomend Lavin D-47 or another wine yeast, I have everything I need to get a cyser rolling except the only Yeast I have on hand is US-05...
Im tempted to go with the 05 because it is so clean and Ive liked it in traditional meads...anyone have any advice or experience with different yeasts for cysers?

I think it greatly depends upon hwere you want your gravities to be. But really, if you've done traditional meads with US-05 and liked them, I think you'll be just fine with US-05 in a cyser. Just make sure you put plenty of nutrient in there!
