Is the water better boiled or unboiled? I mean for the pineapple and cider recipes?

I saw someone said they went 50/50 boiled/unboiled.

Truth.... I'll do half, I think.

About to attempt my first pineapple batch.

I am curious about the white vs brown sugar. There seems to be quite a difference in taste. Those yeasties must have a general preference.

I boil as much as will fit in my biggest pot with the pineapple and sugar and the rest in my kettle. Add it all to the bucket and put the bucket in a sink of cold water, cools fairly quickly.

I do 6l a time, will be a mission using this method for huge batches.

Boiling will get rid of any nasties, my mate had a batch go rotten not boiling, was gross.
