Yeast Vote For Today Please :)

Post by Parp » Sun Jun 14, 2009 1:15 pm

I've got a brew on at the moment ;

4.2% (at 75% attenuation)
10.1 EBC

UK Pale Ale Malt 56.4%
UK Vienna Malt 37.6%
UK Wheat Malt 6.0%

Hops are 38 IBU's of Boadicea and Crystal, both in FWH/20 min/80C steep.

I had wanted to use S-04, but I'm out of it :(

Yeast Choices ;

US-05
Nottingham
Windsor
Munich

I'm about 2hrs off pitching.
What's everyone reckon? Which Yeast?

Please use the proper terminology when referring to UK-05. Either UK05, UK/05, UK-05, UK5, Safale United Kingdom V, Safale British 5, etc.

Whatever it's called....it makes a cracking West Coast style Pale Ale..... several pints of Cascade Creek going down nicely this afternoon while I play with bladed power tools in the garden....

It also makes a phenomenal summer brew with 50/50 Maris Otter and Lager Malt. Hop with First Gold and Centennial.

Thanks all.

After all that, I ended up using a Nottingham as it was the only pack I'd left out of the fridge!

:oops: Doh!
