Zelly Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 hi there guys, what would be a good yeast to use is a IPA, I'm thinking of putting down a IPA fresh wort kit from keg land, and was wondering what type of yeast to use. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiek86 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Hello zelly did kegland recommend anything when picked up the FWK? a good start would be any type of ale yeast including US-05 or Nottingham or anbother english yeast. Even Verdant IPA yeast by Lallemand or somethingis brand. There are no right or wrongs if not entering a competition and you wont know what your taste is until try. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenyinthewestofsydney Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Yep. After using many yeasts over the years for IPA's and Pale Ales I have to say Verdant is the best I have used. My previous favourite was new world strong for IPA and WY1272 for pale ales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiek86 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I heard it was a nice thick krausen like us 05 and ripped through the ferment fast. The one time I used it the krausen was about same as us 05 but fermented a bit slower. I have another pack I will try in another brew to see if that's what happens as not all brews the same.

Shamus O'Sean Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 @Zelly, I have to agree with many of the poster's: Verdant IPA is a great yeast for an IPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
