Yeast with AG (Amyloglucosidase) is a yeast to use with a all grain mash and is suppose to have some of the nutrients the grain is lacking...

Ok how about putting it this way. Should a yeast that has Amyloglucosidase be re-hydrated.

Scotty, i am loaded with dumb questions but only about things i don't know...Huh?

I talked to BH today on the phone about adding to my order and while I had them on the phone I asked them if you need to re-hydrate the whiskey or vodka yeast with AG and they said no need to...

Actually, rehydrating a turbo yeast will kill the yeast, as some of the nutrients that the yeast needs are toxic to it in high concentration.

Are the whiskey and vodka yeast with AG that you sell at BH considered a turbo yeast?

The vodka yeast, but the whisky yeast is not (no whisky yeast actually should need to include nutrients).

I'm using the prestige whisky w/ ag in a sweet feed. I plan on setting back on the grain and adding sugar. How many 6 gal cycles should I get w/ the one initial yeast packet?
