Chisel Jersey and Dabinett have usually nicked well with KB -- but not 
always.  Likely best to use several pollenizers, e.g. Golden Hornet, Stoke 
Red and the very late Vilbirie. 

Need to keep in mind that there are a few triploids out there, e.g. Bulmers 
Norman, Virginia Crab, Bramley's Seedling, Jonagold. 

re:  rootstocks -- Ciders on Geneva 16 have consistently outproduced those 
on Malling 9.
