I know people will debate the merits of dry versus liquid yeast as long as beer is around. That's not my question.
I have used both dry and liquid and have just begun washing some yeast also. In the off chance I screw up (I'm still a noob) or I need to repitch or whatever, I think I should have a back up dry yeast (or two or three) in the fridge.
What do you guys use for backup and for what style?
If I can have just one or two packets that work for a variety of beers, that would be best.
I will brew a variety of ales: brown/red ales, APA, scottish ales, IPA.
I may brew some high gravity beers but only occasionally.
