I made a mash with sweet corn, and put it in two different barrels, one with dry active distillers yeast, and the other with bread yeast, they both are the same exact proof and I put on a blind taste test to see which one is preferred by the most moonshiners. I would like to thank all the moonshiners that tried them and let us know what they thought.

I think this is my favorite video so far. Its a good one.👍
Awesome video really enjoyed this one
I did a similar test several years ago, also doing an all grain bourbon mash. I ferment on grain and I liked the different characters each one produced. So now I use BOTH, equal parts Dady and Fleischmann's bread yeast in all my bourbons, give it a try, tastes fantastic.
Not a bad idea
Great video!! It was interesting to see bunch of ppl basically the same differences over a bunch of tests. It's been long time since I used daddy. I've always associated it with high gravity mashes, and I run lower gravity mashes. When I start making shine again I'm going to do this test again and see what happens. I may prefer daddy if it gives the sweeter taste.
Shine On Phil!
love this kind of info hunting stuff. keep it up!
Probably also mentioned below but it also comes down to the cuts, the speed of the run.
Guy takes the teeth out, made my day.
This was a really good taste test review..
Great test I think some of it is personal taste I've used Red star distillers yeast.. and my last batch fermented way to long think my yeast is dying or almost dead.. been a while gonna try one more time before I ditch it tried pineapple last attempt. Think I'll try sugar wash just for fermentation purposes... can always flavor or re run it with another mash... for educational purposes only!!!!!
Great video, brother.
I'm new to the hobby with only six runs under my belt. The first and only corn mash recipe I tried called for 1 tbs bread yeast and 1-1/2 tbs. Distillers Active Dry Yeast. In a 5 gal pot. So that's what I did with others which have been sour mash. I'm gonna have to try one and then other like you did.
Very helpful video
Great Vid Phil. Really like the heads up comparison blind taste test. This goes to show that taste and preferences are all subjective. In 3 months I’ve learned that everyone likes everything a different way. Can we see DADY vs Bread Vs Wine yeast on a sugar wash? Super small batch just to see if any can produce a more neutral / less fire taste?
That was a really close vote, I wonder about brandy and mountain brandy differences. Everyone seems to be between bread yeast and EC1118
I’d like to see that one myself
That was a good video.
Man Phil ought to do a shed tour, that place looks so gnarly.
the Wizards chamber.
Great video what event was you at
Hell yeah I’ve been doing it right all the time then 🤙🏻
I have a old yeast culture from a well known distillery in VA. I've used it for several years and keep recycling it and reusing it.
i've tried reusing yeast, it always goes overboard and "explodes" all over the floor. so is there a specific amount that you use that starts the fermentation but doesn't get it too active?
Was Mark the only one to cleanse the pallet before trying a different shine? Great video man.
Like Big Eazie every one should have had a swig of water between tastes that would have made a big difference in the outcome I bet!!!!
I would be curious to see how using one with the same recipe and just the backset in one would fair out.
Was #2 & 3 afraid you wasn't gonna give em another drink? 🤣🤣🤣
Could you do a video using distiller yeast and 48hr turbo yeast
Saf instant red bakers yeast is my fav,chews thru rum wash like a Mf! Whisky I’ll do half saf red n half whiskey yeast n no probs at all,saf red likes the higher temps,I get away with 32 to 36’c no dramas,flavour wise I get a hint of yeast but as I can’t get dady in Australia it’s not a flavour bomb problem! Hey if it chews thru the mash n gives me the alkihol i ain’t gunna give a flyin fook 👍
I’m here for it first
I have a bunch of different wine yeast but I don't have any dady yeast yet
I Phil I'm wondering if you can mix the yeast half bread juice and half daty
I've been using 50/50 dady & bread yeast lately...
Philbilly is it possible that you switched them by accident seems like the bread yeast would def smell and taste sweeter?
China angel yeast??? Thoughts??
About to try some Russian super yeast.
@PhilBilly Moonshine - Hey man i was watching & just thinking; shouldn't testers do a water 'rinse' between samplings?
clean the pallet or what ever. I Cant barley hold a shot without a rinse / watter chaser so what do i know... but yeh dude, just seems like that would improve results. love everything you do man, you are an inspiration to Tubers & Homebrewers alike. hope to chat with you On the next B.O.P Bar Open-MCnight.
-STAY FROSTY -🚬🤔❄The Skeptical Canuck.
I was thinking the same thing until the last guy did it
You said you did it again what was the outcome of the second time did you choose a daddy or the bridge East
I use Daddy myself. How about a comparison between Daddy yeast and Turbo yeast🤔
Nah i just used bread yeast all the time brother it taste dam good 😂
I've already done this few weeks ago, I got to vote dady as the better taste, just my opinion
I know that it’s mostly about the taste but maybe do a smell test and taste bring coffe beans as it’s supposed to help with distracting the smell to help reset the nose
Should have proofed them both down to 80. The 120 is a little overpowering on the senses. I always proof down when making cuts as flavors become more discernible...but that's me.
I've never had access to anything besides bread yeast. The question is...... is the price (including going hour or 2 away to buy) it from a brew shop worth adding into cost?
I want to eventually get fermade o or k and some enzymes but would the expensive yeast be higher on the list?
I'm a stick with bread yeast and try to get some enzymes and nutrients after watching this...... maybe in the future I'll get some fancy yeast.
:)
to answer the question, i'd say it's not worth the extra expense to go for one option over the other, if one is harder and/or more expensive, the difference is very minor and you would be totally happy with either end product.
i would recommend instead working on perfecting your process and that will have a much bigger impact on your final product than what particular yeast is used.
The yeast to use is the yeast you have.
What kind of bread yeast are you saying?
Daddy won hands down, but I lost count of actual score.
Dude I didn't know sloth was still around ! LMAO BIG EASZY
Y'all wanna hear something funny.. ...
It took me the whole video to figure out what a D.A.D.Y yeast was. I couldn't find that brand anywhere on the internet.. All I've used so far is Rwd Star and Fleshman's..lol... THEN I realized it was an acronym.....
This makes me completely rethink bread yeast , I wasn't even going to give it a chance. But this video makes me want to I love my sweet 120 proof from Dady, but maybe I'll like it with bread yeast more
I get 160 proof from dady in hearts
Don't be spilling that stuff; that's called alcohol abuse!
