There's a thread on our club's FB page going. Interesting, they recommend a much higher pitching rate than US - 05 does. I wonder if it really matters assuming proper rehydrating before pitching.

Already packaged that way. Danstar comes in 500g packs, US05 in 11.5g paks.I thought when I picked up the Danstar the packs seems bigger.

11 gm is their homebrewer size pack. 500gm for $4 would be sweet though. B)

I guess I thought the 500g was the homebrew size :)

I was going to start a whole new thread but I figured why not just bump this one.  This has been around for a while now - what do people think?  I know drez likes it although I'm not sure I've pulled a full description out of him as to what he thinks it is like (versus say, US-05, or 1056 or something).  So lay it on me people!

I don't know if this is in the thread somewhere, but supposedly BRY97 is the same as WY1272.

Heard this from my lhbs last week. Maybe that is one reason I like it?

Who was writing that it comes in 500 gram packages, isn't that more than 1 pound? 

 

I used it in an IPA and it was good.  But I think since it's priced about $1 more than S05, and in my mind it isn't so good as to justify spending an extra buck (especially when I don't think it's needed).  The neat thing about Danstar dry yeast packages is that the package is vacuum sealed.  Not sure what good that does but it is neat.

I like that yeast although I only have one sample point so my confidence in that opinion isn't that high.  have you tried bry-97?

how close to 1272 do you find it?  I know you've used 1272 more than I have.

Nope, haven't tried it.  I'd have to make an effort to get it and there are so many other yeasts I like that I haven't been motivated to do that.  I have pretty high confidence in the source that told me it';s the same as 1272, which is readily available.
