With the hop shortage I've learned that most people keep a "stash" of brew materials handy in the event of an emergency, shortage, disaster... whatever.
I hear a ton about grains and hops, but I'm wondering, what YEASTS do you all keep on hand at any given time? Also, what styles do you tend to brew that would require those strains?
I've found I've REALLY fallen in love with yeast harvesting and I'd like to get a few things stocked up but I'm not sure what to do, and style guidelines take in to account what is good for the style, not what someone has found to be against the style but really good, so I'm asking the community for input.
