I have an opportunity to purchase some begerow riesling yeast- not alot
on the web other than marketing information. Has anyone used this
product before?

I'll be using EC118/D47 if all else fails.

I found one post about it:

Thanks in advance-

I bought some 3 weeks ago for Riesling and maybe Gewurz. It's my first
time with it as well but it came recommended as being used in some
commercial wineries around here (BC). I had good results in the past
with Steinberg, 58W3, and liquid Rudisheimer (Wyeast). I usually do two
different yeasts on the same juice to compare.

Hrmmm. I could do 3x5gallon batches instead of the 1x15 gallon batch I
had intended to do. Tho that does eat more carboys- I suppose after
the initial fermentation I could rack it into some empty corny kegs and
seal them off, venting the gas once a day...

You do bring up a good idea about testing it tho- I was hoping for an
easy fix.

I need more space
