That yeast is White Labs WLP001 "California Ale" I think? Correct me if I'm wrong. I use that yeast all the time and it works great for my ales.

I am interested in that book but have not been able to find it.
Also, it is rumored that Jamil and Chris White are writing a book about yeast for the homebrewer. Just FYI.

or Wyeat 1056; or even easier US-05 dry yeast 
Keep in mind that even though SNPA is bottle conditioned they may filter their beer and then bottle carb with another yeast; so even if you bottle harvested from SNPA, you may not get what you want...
I'd stick with US-05 |

If its g- (pink) your looking at clostridium and if its g+(purple) then bacillus.
|
I know this was from earlier this month, but I'm just getting around to reading this thread. This isn't right. Clostridium are Gram+ anaerobic bacteria, not negative. They typically don't hold stain very well, even in new cultures, so they can sometimes be mistaken for negative. I'd be very surprised if any clostridials could grow in beer. If they did, you'd get really sick. C. diff and tetanus are two diseases caused by clostridials. |

While SNPA is filtered and yeast is added back, it is most definitely WLP001. |
