Well i Brewed both Wine & Beer with bread yeast since thats the only yeast available where i live.
beer turned out awesome
Wine well what can i say not strong as wine abv% but still drinkable it chew red grape flavor thou... so i don't recommend for that purpose. "i don't know why probably due strain of yeast" work fine with white ones and fruit like "Cornus mas" turned out quiet well still low abv...
few things if you want to use it.
1. it make tons of CO2 foam so you have to consider more head space atleast for first 48hours
2. dont expect high abv so far highest i manage even with yeast energizer+nutrient was like 8.5%
3. like rest of yeast it settle down but not as quickly as like lalvin 1118 take more time so be patient.
4. if you are in hurry right after they finished put it on fridge for 2 or 3 days they all settle down you can rack and bottle it
i guess that't all i know so far have fun brewing
Cheers
