I guess I also use way to much but 50 grams of live yeast from Asda works well for me with bubbles through the airlock within a few minutes

100 gr of yeast per 90L of wash for rum or vodka. Bit more for cachaca.

Thank you for starting off vino.

If you make a starter with bakers yeast you won't have to worry about aerating the wash as the yeast will already have grown to provide about 10 times the amount of dried yeast

Just wondering if there's much difference in the amount bakers yeast per litre
Used across the board.
Also add it dry or hydrate it first
