Default I <3 Nottingham

My session ale with an OG of about 1.045 was just dominated by Nottingham. In no more than 30 hours @ 65F, it has already fermented out completely. I'll be drinking this baby by next weekend

I use Nottingham in all of my beers that don't require a specialty yeast. 1 pack (pitched dry) finishes my 1.060 APA to 1.010 or lower in 48 hours everytime.

Nothing comes close for the price.

Used Nottingham for the first time in my last brew and it was the first time I hit my expected FG.

Nottingham is a beast! I use it in pretty much everything. It's a great neutral yeast and it ferments like a mad-man (if a mad-man were capable of such things).

I love Nottingham too. These are pics of my first brew. I wasn't sure if this was normal, but you guys assured me it was, and this beer kicked ass.

Ya gotta be careful with that stuff. You might ferment your hand off if your skin comes in contact with it
