Wow, what a difference fresh, healthy yeast makes. I brewed a belgian tripel yesterday, so Friday I stopped at my LHBS on the way home from work to get my yeast (WLP500). They were still unpacking their delivery, and dug out a vial from a box. I made a starter Friday night, then pitched it Sunday afternoon. I was seeing airlock action in 3 hours, and today I have 2-3 bubbles a second! The last time I did one of these, it took weeks to ferment out. Best start ever.

If you ever have the chance try and get some yeast from a local brew pub, I have had explosive results.
