The souring in your mashes using a wild ferment is largely from lactobaccilus; not yeast. Brettanomyces is typically the strain family that we would call "wild yeast" And they tend to bring either fruity flavors or some funk to the mix. Brett will sometimes throw some acetic acid, but it's a tiny amount. If you're in the states, there's a number of yeast places that have isolated and produced some of these wild yeasts especially for brewing. The Yeast Bay is the only one that I can think of off the top of my head as a yeast company that specializes in the wild varieties. White Labs and Wyeast also do a bit with Brett blends.

EC1118 champagne yeast is my go to here in the UK. It likes the general temps here and easy to get hold of, anything labelled all purpose wine yeast is normally EC1118. Ferments reliably to dry up to 15%+ and is pretty neutral. No need for turbo just use this with plenty of nutrient at 24-25c for a fast pretty clean ferment or as I prefer 20-23c for a slower very clean ferment.

definitely, I have a rhum agricole style that just finished up and used bread yeast and DADY. It's tasty. Bread yeast can also be a good way to improve the reliability of wild yeasts, either by inoculating a sourdough style starter with bakers yeast and then letting it pick up whatever other critters it wants from the environment, or by co-pitching. just a note about bread yeasts, they produce a LOT of CO2, compared to other strains.

I have a question in regards to Yellow Angel Yeast. I had 10 kilos of grape in order to distill Raki (Turkish Drink) and the first fermentation I used Turbo Yeast and managed to receive a possible alcohol of 14% and exact same fermentation I did with a Yellow Angel Yeast and the outcome after two weeks is a possible alcohol of 7%. I used hydrometer in order to understand the possible ABV in which I took the first reading and than the last reading with the calculations this is where I ended up. Question is; would Yellow Angel Yeast be not so productive in terms of turning sugar into alcohol than the Turbo yeast? Or did I do something wrong? It is a 25 liter mash with 10 kilos of it crushed grapes and 5 kilo of white sugar topped with drinking water. Than I added the yeast to the cup with 35 degrees of hotness and after 15 minutes added the yeast to the container. And according to the calculations of a usual yeast I added 60 grams of Yellow Angel Yeast. Room temperature is 27 degrees steady as the place is where the house heater is. Ph degree was 4.5. I think I did everything possible yet I got out a 7.61% ABV in two weeks time.

On the topic of bakers yeast, there's 3 brands I can get locally at supermarkets and in my limited experience they tend to brew with a wider degree of variability than your more specific brewing yeasts. They are also super gassy (by design), even blowing out my air lock occasionally so have resorted to using a hose into a bottle of water as the air lock. Also the washes never seem to cold crash as well as other more common brewing yeasts... but yes, readily available and will churn out something for the still. :)

Didn't check FG and ABV so far, was waiting for clearing, but still looking like diluted milk. Smelling good, clean, dough-like, that's most important to me in first step, proves I didn't make too much mistakes...

Us05 also works well when doing a cider finishes real clean. I made a pretty good cyzer with it.

Very useful info. I have managed to get my hands on a couple of Angle yeast packs so looking forward to testing them. ;)

Nice video, actually my experience is rum, and ive spend a lot of money for rum stillspirits and wasn't see any difference from baking yeast except time for fermentation :)

Problem is in alot of countries you are very limited as to what yeasts are available due to legalities of home brewing

Nice round-up. Love the dark grunge so yes some of these are awesome. You may also give Fermentis USW-6 a try if you are looking specifically for a Bourbon profile. It is really good with a malted rye and malted corn combo as well.

I’m a 20 year plus home brewer that started distilling when you started building your still, this is one of your most helpful episodes, also thanks for the suggested into into the whiskey vault, gorge and bearded.
