Used the blue safale on the last six brews works really well and settles out well. The last two brews done over the past couple of weeks ive ussed the red US-56 one and its fermenting out quite dry got one in FV at the mo and its down to 1010 and still bubbling through the air lock as I type. This works well with these two beers as they are quite bitter 34 and 38 EBU's.

What others do they do as the only other one at me local shop is a lager one
has any one got any suggestions which one to use for a stout as that the next brew planned.

Depends how you like your stout. I personally like US-56 because it allows the roasted malt to come through and it gets the beer nice and dry.

Check out the DCL website for the other Saf yeasts, they have fair selection. It's pretty hard to find anything apart from Safale US-56, S-04, Saflager S-23, Safbrew S33 & T58.
