I've only been into homebrew (starting with cider) for about 6 months. In that time I've tried numerous types and styles of apple juice, and five different yeasts (SafAle-S04, SafAle-US05, Nottingham, Belle Saison, Cider House Select). Ironically, out of the nine batches I've made, the first batch was the best and it was Martinelli's Apple Juice (brewed in the plastic jug I bought it in) and SafAle-S04 - that's it. Since then I tried a lot of different combinations and most recently went back to SafAle-S04 and that is where I will stay. I ferment in my 66F basement storage room and SafAle-S04 ferments down to 1.000 in 12 days and flocculates amazingly well. I cold crash at Day 12 and bottle at Day 14 then bottle condition for 1 week before I start drinking. I want to bottle age to develop more complex and smooth flavors but always end up drinking it all first. I've give it away to close friends and family and it's so good they are shocked I make it in my basement LOL.
I've purchased yeast two different times from Craft A Brew. In both cases the yeast was fresh, unexpired, and worked great. To be fair, I ordered in Winter so there was no worry of excessive heat during shipping. Will definitely purchase from Craft A Brew again.
