    I've used the WLP300 with great results. I always use a one or two litre starter though.

    I like to ferment it around 21 C (~70F) to emphasis the flavours. Try it in a dunkelweizen :D

    The only problem with using bleach for yeast is that there aren't enough nutrients in the wort for them, so you have to make sure to add some aluminum shavings as well.

    Don't forget to sanitize with ammonia before hand.

    No way! I use yeast to sanitize! Dry yeast of course.

    I sterilize my yeast in a big hyperbole, then I sanitize everything first.

    Me thinks dish washer soap soaked steel pieces would work better.

    I think that the dry yeast package isn't as erotic as the White Labs tubes. Dry yeast package looks like a condom package and the White labs looks like.....well you know!
