Wilko Gervin Yeast
Wilko Gervin Yeast
I have read that Wilko Gervin yeast is actually the Nottingham strain but wonder if that is correct. I am about to do an all grain brew am nervous of fermenting in the spare bedroom as I have little control over temperature and the room is south facing so gets hot on sunny days. The alternative is a shaded semi external utility room where the temp would be 13 to 15 C. I understand true Nottingham can perform as low as 10C hence the question as to the exact similarity of the strain.

Been brewing with Wilko's Yeast for about 5 years + now.
It is my go to Yeast withstands varying Fermentation temperature's with no off taste.

Some years ago one of the home brew department employees from Wilko head office was a member here.
He confirmed to me that the Gervin yeast they sell IS Nottingham
Cheers Tom

Re: Wilko Gervin Yeast
Thanks very much and apologies that my search did not reveal this thread. Also I only saw the response after revisiting my own post so wonder if I need to reset something as being new to the site I am floundering a bit.

You should get an email notification of replies to your threads by default. Although they can sometimes take a short while to come through. Maybe check the spam box on your email?

P.S. That thread is best part of 9 years old so could have been one of the last results of your search?

Re: Wilko Gervin Yeast
Thanks I did that and received a couple of notifications then no more despite others kindly responding to my posts. When I go into the options there are two boxes inviting ticks the first headed "notifications" and the second "email" both of which I currently have ticked. I wonder if that is wrong as I am not receiving email notifications. I am not receiving them in any section including spam nor would normal delay explain this as a few days have elapsed. There are more important things going on around us but I would like to rectify this so help please!
Re: Wilko Gervin Yeast
Is your email address correct?
Re: Wilko Gervin Yeast
I will try and take a look tonight to see if I can see what is going on.
Re: Wilko Gervin Yeast
I've already had a look at the admin panel and all looks well with that. I've subscribed to a few threads to see if it's working for me - will report back when I have a result.
Is anyone else have problems I wonder.
