For S&G as coopers kits were on sale for $10, I did a coopers draught with 2 packs of brigalow yeast, just to compare with coopers kit and their kit yeast I did in Jan.
Airlock bubbling within hours, high krausen the first night. Seems as vigorous as cooper kit yeast at least.
E: I had the laundry sink full of chilled water to cool down the partial, fermenter is still sitting in it, was 16C when pitched, 18C the next day after krausen, currently 22C...
Going to take it out the sink soon so I can use the washing machine and obviously it's cooler than 22C during over night ambient anyway. Time for it to brew at warmer ambients in order to compare to cooper kit yeast
(I like learning "why" rather being told "not to" )

[QUOTE="pablo_h, post: 1356750, member: 7623"] For S&G as coopers kits were on sale for $10, I did a coopers draught with 2 packs of brigalow yeast, just to compare with coopers kit and their kit yeast I did in Jan. Airlock bubbling within hours, high krausen the first night. Seems as vigorous as cooper kit yeast at least. E: I had the laundry sink full of chilled water to cool down the partial, fermenter is still sitting in it, was 16C when pitched, 18C the next day after krausen, currently 22C... Going to take it out the sink soon so I can use the washing machine and obviously it's cooler than 22C during over night ambient anyway. Time for it to brew at warmer ambients in order to compare to cooper kit yeast (I like learning "why" rather being told "not to" :) ) [/QUOTE]
