Background: I am new to home brewing of any kind. I have spent the better part of the last month researching different types of home brews and have settled on JOAM as my first foray into brewing.
Question: I have found a ton of information on JOAM on this site, as well as other sites, as well as different youtube videos relating to the subject. One question I have continually seen surrounds that of yeast. The most common answer I have found is to use the yeast that the recipe recommends. This is well and fine. However, I am slightly confused as to which yeast is actually being recommended. Obviously I know the brand that is recommended is fleischmann's and I have seen that people recommend not using the bread machine or rapid rise. What I haven't seen is what is the difference between "Active Dry" and "Instant Dry". I have new "Instant Dry" I feel as though it ought to work. But I can't seem to find any information on the difference between the two as it pertains to JOAM.
Thanks in Advance
