Does anyone use Pacman for anything other than Dead Guy? Anyone know the actual specific characteristics of this yeast? I have an extra pack that I was going to make starters with and store in the fridge. Just wondered what the results would be with recipes other than Dead Guy. Only thing I know about it, is that it likes 60-64 degree fermentation and that the target gravity for the Dead Guy was 1.066. I calculated from my BrewCraft clone kit results, that the Apparent Attenuation was 81% and the real attenuation was 67%. Based on my inexperienced eye, I would say that there was medium flocculation. I don't know about the degree of alcohol tolerance, but my ABV was 7.6%. The only thing missing from my homemade profile would be what flavors that it favored or produced.
I brewed this kit about 4 months ago. This was really an excellent kit and my best batch to date. I like mine even better than the original.
