I have had a 100gr tub of youngs yeast given to me, it is well in date just wondered if anyone has used it. if so is it any good, it says one level teaspoon per gallon which seems a lot to me

I've used this stuff:
I don't know if its the same as in the tub, possibly not. My experience is that attenuation s relatively low, abot the same as Windsor, I'd say. Apart from that, it;s decent enough. Check out the website.
