Heyas,
I've been using lowans bakers yeast for about a year with great success.
Never had one stall and I've had it ferment in temperatures less than ideal.
I'm surprised how well it handles the heat.
I'm completey out of yeast and given its coming into winter (lower temp) I was wondering if I should use ec1118 for the winter months.
I usually start my washes (tpw) outside and bring indoors after a few days. (Odour control)
I know it's not ideal to not control temp but it's worked so far.
To be honest I'm lazy, If or when I get a wash fail I'll get a heater but probably not before.
I just wrap a car sunshade around the fermentor.
My approach is perhaps to simplistic. Tpw with bakers yeast for good neutral. One run on a reflux with tight cuts.
It works great so I've never looked to change it
It will be getting to about 10c outside now so I'm wondering which yeast is best for low ferment tempratures.
Thanks for any input.
