I've recently made my first batch, Cooper Irish Stout and I and my mates have been quite happy with the results (a little too carbonated for my tastes so a slight adjustment in my next batch is req.)
While I enjoyed the kit would there be much value in buying a speciality yeast such as White labs etc for future brews? I know the quality of beer kits is pretty good and I've got my eye in the American Beers APA kit as a next brew with the Classic Cru from Brewferm following closely behind.
Basically if I'm spending £22 on a beer kit would using a Wyeat or White Labs yeast make that much of a diffrence?
I'm eager to make the best brew I can for the budget I have and I could happily not have two pints in the bar if the money invested into the yeast would make a big difference.
Thanks in advance for your candor :)
