Amount of yeast

[Chorley’s Angel]

I am new to cider making and was wondering... my first batch of cider will be around 13-15 litres.... 3.3 gallons or thereabouts.
I have bought the Lalvin EC-1118 wine yeast. It says that a 5g sachet will be sufficient for 5 gallons. Am I best to put it all in, or would you measure the correct proportion out (three fifths)?
Any advice would be appreciated

A slight overpitch won't matter, so either way works... Unless you're planning another batch soon, in the 8-10 liter range, probably not worth holding back the other 2 grams of yeast.

Ah brill, that’s good to know! Thank you

as far as i know pitching yeast is like powering speakers, you can't over power them.....just under power. kinda like how you can plug a incandescent bulb straight into a 15A 120v socket and it will only use what it needs....
