So, I was looking to brew up a dry stout (extract + steeping grains) tomorrow. I have a packet of Coopers Brewing Yeast and Muntons Premium Gold in the fridge right now. Which should I use?
I've read Coopers can produce some fruitiness -- but I've also read that's not a big deal in a stout. I've also read some terrible things about Muntons, but Muntons Premium Gold might be OK. Both appear to be high attenuators (according to BYO). Thoughts?
Alternatively, I could postpone the brew a week and pick up a different yeast.
