Hi,
I've gotten hold of a bunch of demijohn/glass wine things and intend to try and make a few different kinds of wine over the next few weeks. I was hoping people here could help me out with suggestions for what types of dried yeast to buy. On eBay it seems like you can pick 'n' mix different Lalvin yeasts which seems to be a good bet.
I was thinking of making edwort's apfelwein to get me going and perhaps a skeeter pee at some point. I'll also give elderflower wine a go I think and probably what ever summer fruits I can get my hands on cheaply or for free (most likely cherries and different berries).
I'm in Germany and the selection of yeasts doesn't seem great and is quite a lot more expensive than in Britain or the US so I'll probably bulk-buy a few different varieties and store them in the fridge. Some that are relatively multi-purpose and that are maybe less susceptible to fluctuations in temperatures may also be good.
Thanks in advance!
