Different bread yeast differ very much with alcohol tolerance (our local fresh bread yeast is used/was used to produce mash for distilling and yeast for baking, yeast intended only for baking don't need any alcohol tolerance), taste and flocculation (how fast it will settle down). You can keep yeast alive for a long time so you don't need to purchase it very often. There is quite lot of information about storing brewers yeast in the brewery (http://www.brewery.org/brewery/Library.html). I order my yeast routinely from abroad. I live in Finland, we have homebrew shops but selection is poor. If you live in europe brouwland (http://www.brouwland.com/) is nice place to shop. Remember, wine was made with wild yeast just a few centuries ago. seismo malm |
