Been brewing for about a year and a half and only used dry yeast until now. Probably up to about 55 to 60 batches by now. Only really had two disappointing batches so far and don't think the yeast was to blame.
S-04 for most of my stouts, porters, British Pale ales, bitters, ESBs and IPAs, but have also used Nottingham a couple of times in the 2 AG ESBs made this last month.
US-05 for American PAs and IPAs
S-33 used in an attempt at a Belgian wit last Autumn and it's been really enjoyable. Added some Yuzu (Japanese citrus) tea mix and some ginger extract, fermented up around 70-72 for the initial few days then let temps go up a bit more, 74-76 or so from there onwards, and the outcome was pretty enjoyable. Hint of banana, slight citrus and tinge of spice from the ginger, tart in a nice, refreshing way. That carb-ed up and was ready to drink in a week to 10 days from bottling.
Also just did a sort of, very rough, attempt at a Belgian ale/dubbel using two packs of S-33. OG of 1.073/FG 1.018. Started at 58 to 60 for first two days, ramped up to 66 to 68 from third day and then 72 to 74 from day 6 'til a week before bottling when I crashed it to 52. Has been in bottles for about a month and a half. The bottle I drank last night tasted quite good and has definitely come along nicely compared to the first one I drank a couple of weeks ago.
Both times using S-33 I've started at a lower temp, ramped up as initial fermentation slowed down and for conditioning as I'd heard it's quite common for this yeast to crap out with the slightest of drop in temp but it'll keep soldiering on pretty well if warm enough. Also heard that too high in the first few days will lead to it promoting enough banana esters to flag down a troop of monkeys.
It goes off with a bang from the get go, dynamic krausen, then definitely loses momentum, visually.
Tried T-58 once but can't remember what I used it for and I think it was back around one of my 5th to 8th brews. Haven't managed to find any here since then, which is a shame because I definitely want to try it again.
Have a pack of WB-06 that I'm going to try doing a Heffeweissen with soon.
Sorry, got a bit carried away on the S-33:fro:
