I'm looking at kits for my first brew and all of the Brewer's Best instructions I have read say NOT to re-hydrate the yeast yet "How to Brew" by John Palmer says many, many times to re-hydrate.
Which should I listen to? It seems like re-hydrating is a good idea to make sure it's not dead but I don't want to mess anything up on my first attempt.
He also says to buy dry yeast separately from what comes in the kits but I'm not sure if that's really necessary since I'm guessing the yeast that comes in kits is much better now than when he wrote his book.
