Anyone else have bad luck with dry yeast? Every time I use dry yeast the lag time and fermentation times are double when I use liquid yeast w/ a starter.



I don't use dry yeast.

I've had good success with liquid yeast handled properly on brewday with well oxygenated wort. I use two packs on big big beers and never have more than 12 hour lag time.

Yep, I haven't used dry yeast in 5 years.

The club decided to use dry yeast for the single hop beers to keep the yeast health as uniform as possible.

Now I remember why I don't like the stuff.
