I split a 45 litre batch and fermented it using 2 different dried ale yeast varieties and was suprised the differences that it made.
6.75kg Maris Otter 0.5kg Biscuit 0.25kg 80 ebc Crystal 0.5kg Naked Oats
Mash in 68°c 70min 60 Min Boil 40g Pride of Ringwood 8% 60min 30g EKG 5% 15 min 30g EKG flameout
OG 1.042
Pitched 10g Fermentis S-04 in 6gal Pitched 10g Mauri 514 in 6gal
Fermented mid teens
FG Fermentis 1.010 FG Mauri 1.015 I was intending to make a session beer and was very happy with the "aley" flavours that the Mauri Produced. the Fermentis was significantly cleaner, still very pleasant but not quite what I had in mind.
The Mauri yeast is actually used in the mid to upper level kit beers here and is looked on as a "lesser" yeast.
