    Haven’t done a kit in a while. But this one came with 2 pkg of yeast, k1-1116 and EC-1118. While i have used both of them , I’ve never used them together
    Should i pick one or just use both?

    Personally, I’d just use one, the K1V-1116.

    Set the EC-1118 aside just incase the KV-1116 doesn't finish. But you can likely ignore it.

    I think most Eclipse kits come with two yeast packets, a main yeast and back-up EC-1118. At least the 3 or 4 I have done did. Did the sauv blanc about 3 years ago, it came out very good.
