I just put my second batch into the primary. It's a Brewer's Best American Ale with a package of Nottingham dry brewers yeast. I had a question about using dry yeast packets. When I pitched it into the wort (the wort was about 70 degrees) it clumped up. I stired it and got most of the clumps out, but was wondering if this is normal for dry yeast.
What kind of yeast do you all use? I've seen the liquid yeast smack packs, are they better than the dry, or does it depend on the style of beer your brewing?
Thanks for any help.

P.S. I have my first batch bottled (bottled last Saturday) and I'm dying to try it, it's killing me!
