Warner Bros. Pictures. 6. Hagrid and Dumble are very specifically named: While Petunia and Vernon may have been named off a gut instinct, Rubeus Hagrid and Albus Dumbledore were derived from the words âredâ and âwhite,â two colors often associated with alchemy.
I've had good results with Nottingham and Safale S-04. Any type of neutral ale yeast should work fine. I don't have much experience with wine yeasts. Also, Wyeast 3068 (wheat beer yeast) worked really well for me, but was a very violent fermenter. Use a blow-off tube for that one!
American 2-row pale malt is primarily loved for its high diastatic powerâthat means it's excellent at converting starch to that sweet fermentable sugar that yeast loves. That said, it is rarely used on its own in commercially available beer (and if it is, its flavor will likely be masked by a mess of hops).
