I make 3 gallon batches and I alternate between two yeasts and run about 6 or 7 batches of each kind of yeast then start over. For example my recent runs were with Trappist 500 and Cali 001 It went:
01. Golden Ale (001)
02. Belgian Pale Ale (500)
03. APA
04. Belgian Dark Strong
05. SNPA Clone
06. Dubbel
07. Big Brown
08. BDS #2
09. Brushfire Brown
10. Tripel
11. IPA
12. Belgian Pale Ale
You can see how I alternate between two different kinds of yeast and try to make a different style every time.
For my next round one of the yeasts is definitely going to be an English with a run something like light brown>PA>IPA>porter>stout>BW or something like that.
I'm asking two things:
1. What English yeast would you use that would be nice across several styles and not dominate the taste of every beer. A more neutral English I guess?
2. What other type of yeast would you like to use to make a run of brews?
ETA: Maybe this goes in the yeast forum. Duh. lol
