I use dry yeast for most of my batches.

However, I do a starter when I use liquid yeast. And I use Mr. Malty.

But how do you determine the viability with White Labs yeast? It has a best used by date on the vial but no date of production. Do we assume that the best used by date is 6 months after production?

Thanks.

Hover your mouse over the production date field. It tells you what Conehead said.

I haven't been able to find this online. Which part of the site has a production date field? Do you enter the lot number in somewhere? I looked briefly for something like this but couldn't find anything.
