        Great Yeast - YMMV

        Even after the low reviews I decided to give this a chance. Buying it on sale and making a starter was still more affordable than buying multiple liquid packs of the same yeast. After making a 1L starter on a stir plate (One yeast pack. 24 hour spin time), I pitched the slurry into 3 gallons of oxygenated wort (1.048 OG) which had also been treated with yeast nutrient. The resulting beer completed fermentation in roughly seven days (at 56F) and tasted great after 7+ days lagering in the keg on CO2. The beer only continued to improve as it sat cold in the keg.I have more of this dry yeast in my fridge at home. I am seriously contemplating it as my house lager yeast. The flavor profile is great (Malty and smooth, yet attenuates well. Low sulfur). Nevertheless, it is always a good idea to keep a pack or two of 34/70 on hand just in case. Your mileage may vary but I really enjoy this yeast.
