It appears that many believe yeast selection makes a big difference to the final product.
There are sooooooo many different yeasts available, that having any idea where to go what to try is daunting for a noob.
What are the important factors to consider?
- flocculation?
- production of diacetyl?
- production of esters?
- production of other by-products?
- ideal fermenting temperature?
- tolerance of temperature fluctuations?
- ease of getting started?
I prefer ales
. . . . dark beers, stouts, my favourite is an Irish Red Ale,
can someone please point me in the right direction?
Safale?
