Good to see you back on the horse!

What yeast are you going to use?

Cheers

Been meaning to get back on the horse for months, but other commitments have kept me away.

I just used S-04, with an SG of 1.047.

Made a harvest IPA today with featuring wet Sauvin with a background of american hops. The wort was tasting and looking most delicious, about 1.07, 9 SRM and absolutely no idea on the IBU, I was just chucking in handfuls of fresh hops every now and then throughout the boil, haha. Maybe around 70? Smells awesome anyway. Can't wait for this one to be ready.

Uh, I didn't realise it was a big deal... I'll just check with my very generous source to make sure no one's going to lose their job over it or something... Then I'll get back to you :)
