This board has been incredibly helpful so far and I have yet another question to pose. All the beers I've brewed so far have used some sort of Wyeast liquid yeast, but the last time we ordered our beer kits from Northern Brewer, the liquid yeast was almost hot to the touch. We are anxiously waiting to see if the beer turns out weird or strange flavored with baited breath (let the offers to "dispose" of any unwanted beer start!! haha!).
To keep shipping costs to a minimum, we ordered eight kits with dry yeast, but after reading the directions, it almost seems too easy to toss the yeast into some warm water 15 minutes before pitching and you are golden after that. Can anyone share any tips to use with dry yeast? All advice is much appreciated!!
