Maybe add as a link in your sig so it can be referenced more easily?
That's a pretty old video and I'm not 100% confident in the experiment. Yes, I still contend that "proper" re hydration starts you off with the most viable yeast cells. Even if dry pitching "has always worked fine", it's silly to knowingly kill a good portion of the colony.

I'm still a new brewer, but I've gotten full attenuation from just pitching dry packets straight into the fermentor without re-hydrating first, so far. The beers I've made have tasted great, so I probably won't bother changing what works.

Yeah, I'm talking about lower gravity beers. I'd never try pitching a single dry packet into a high gravity beer.
